Six In Ten Poles Oppose U.S. Missile Base in Poland: Survey

AGENCE FRANCE-PRESSE, More than six in ten Poles are opposed to a U.S. anti-missile defense system being established in Poland, according to a survey published Aug. 10 by the Rzeczpospolita daily.

The study found that 63 percent of Poles are against such a project, 23 percent are in favor, while 14 percent do not have an opinion.

The survey was carried out by the GfK Polonia polling agency and questioned 983 people August 4 to 6.

Rzeczpospolita reported that Washington wanted any missile base built in Poland to be subject to U.S. rather than local law.

Poland has recently voiced doubts over hosting an American missile system.
