Warsaw, July 31 (IANS) US President Donald Trump will come to Warsaw on September 1 for the 80th commemoration of the start of the World War-II, a spokesperson for the Polish President told media on Tuesday, after receiving confirmation from the White House.

President Trump is scheduled to arrive in Poland on the evening of Aug. 31 and stay until Sept. 2. He is expected to hold a series of meetings with the Polish side and other high-level guests invited by Warsaw to the commemoration.  Trump's visit was already rumored for months in Poland. Polish media had reported that it was likely that the U.S. president would publicly announce a strengthening of U.S. military presence on Polish soil, which has been much anticipated by the Polish leadership.  Back in April, Polish daily Rzeczpospolita had reported that Trump would only come to Warsaw if a deal between the U.S. and Poland on the troop increase would be finalised by then.
