Polish general dismissed over counterintelligence concerns
Poland’s military counterintelligence
service has initiated a probe into Eurocorps Commander Gen. Jaroslaw
Gromadzinski, resulting in his dismissal from the position, Polish Defense
Ministry said on March 27.
Gromadzinski is also required to return immediately to Poland from Strasbourg, where the Eurocorps HQ is located. Eurocorps is a multinational rapid reaction force command, whose forces can be deployed in operations under the auspices of the EU, NATO, and the UN.
The ministry explained that the Polish general was dismissed due to "new information" received about him and is also based on an ongoing investigation under the Poland’s Classified Information Act.
Gromadzinski took up his post as the commander of the Eurocorps in June 2023. Before this appointment, he served as an advisor to the Chief of the General Staff in Poland.
Recently, he also worked with the international Security Assistance Group — Ukraine in Wiesbaden, where, alongside U.S. military personnel, he was responsible for the training of Ukrainian troops.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
