Overseeing implementation of mine production and East Shield integration
In 1997, 122 countries signed a treaty banning anti-personnel landmines, buoyed by a global campaign that won the Nobel Peace Prize. By 2016, Poland had destroyed its entire stockpile. On February 20, 2026, Poland officially withdrew from that treaty and announced it would restart mine production, develop the capability to mine its 400-mile eastern border within 48 hours, and integrate minefields into a $2.5 billion fortification network stretching from the Baltic Sea to the Carpathian foothills.
