Steven Pifer, a CSIS senior adviser, was quoted by the Associated Press, "Poland's Tusk Indicates Talks on Track Over U.S. Missile Shield."
A White House visit by Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk seemed to ease tension with the United States stemming from Poland's demand for military aid in exchange for allowing U.S. missile defense interceptors on its soil. . .
''Poland is a little nervous about Russia and they are looking at what happens in 2009,'' said Steven Pifer, a former U.S. diplomat who is now an analyst at the Center for Strategic and International Studies. ''Having a good meeting was important, but I suspect that as they do the details, Poland is going to want to get something locked in concrete.''
