Vance expressed that he would be surprised if Trump sought to position nuclear weapons further east in Europe

U.S. Vice President JD Vance expressed his surprise on Thursday at the possibility of President Donald Trump supporting the deployment of nuclear weapons further east in Europe. Vance’s comments came in response to a query regarding the Polish president’s request for the U.S. to place nuclear weapons in Poland as a safeguard against potential Russian threats.

“I haven’t discussed this specific matter with the President, but I would be astonished if he endorsed the idea of nuclear weapons being stationed further east in Europe,” he stated during an interview on Fox News’ “The Ingraham Angle.”
