But how strong are their forces? As far as I recall, they spend a considerable proportion of their GDP on military forces, but their GDP is as far as I know considerably lower than that of the major West European countries. Of course, money spent is far from the only factor, but it is still an important factor.
True, their GDP is low. However, their economies are also some of the fastest-growing in the EU.
That is a reasonable point, though whether their growth will slow (greatly or a bit), stay about the same or increase, or what will happen, can be difficult to predict. If Western Europe falls, it would impact those countries greatly as well in multiple different ways (or worse). Poland has several Western/Central European countries as considerable trading partners (I found this random source reg. that, though I don't know whether it is trust-worthy: https://oec.world/en/profile/country/pol/ ).
