Poland's Road to NATO

After years of effort, Poland joined the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO for short) on 12 March 1999. One of the major tasks of the Polish government after 1989 was to secure Poland's defence capability as well as ensure its safety. The video describes Poland's road to NATO, including steps made by the Polish diplomacy and the role of Jan Nowak-Jeziorański in lobbying the US authorities to admit Poland to the organisation.
