Boeing gets missile shield contract in Poland

Americans are not waiting for the official approval and let some US companies make money on the missile shield project. Boeing will get USD 80 million to launch works connected with the missile shield in Poland and the Czech Republic. It makes one ask if president Bush learned something at his meeting with Lech Kaczynski that Polish politicians are yet unaware of.

On July 5th, at the Parliament, Witold Waszczykowski, the deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs said that if Poland and the USA agree to build the missile shield, Boeing will build a base in Poland worth USD 600m. On July 16th, minister Waszczykowski told a Russian daily “Noviye Izviestia” that construction works could start in February 2008.
