He stated that these discussions are occurring at the NATO level, with a significant meeting of defense ministers scheduled for June 18 at NATO headquarters in Brussels, where nuclear deterrence capacities will be a key agenda item. Kosiniak-Kamysz emphasized the sensitivity of the topic, indicating that any statements regarding it would come from official NATO channels rather than speculation.
