      This isn’t the same. Host nukes is not owning nukes, they seems to be proposing housing US nukes that Poland would not have control of, or be able to launch. With no launch codes, they aren’t a valid deterrent to conventional war, unless the world is convinced the US would use them to protect Polish sovereignty, which would obviously not be on the table.

        There’s no way USA would ever let Russia (or any other enemy) even near the nukes in Poland.

        So really hosting USA’s nukes provides a double guarantee for help in case of invasion on top of NATO
