Majority of Poles in favor of referendum on U.S. anti-missile shield

WARSAW - About 75 percent of Poles advocate a national
referendum on the installation of the U.S.
anti-missile shield in this country, Polish television
reported Friday.

The results of a poll show that nearly three quarters
of those surveyed thought that the decision whether to
install the U.S. anti-missile shield should be decided
through a national referendum. About 24 percent of
Polish people oppose the move, while three percent
didn't express an opinion.

Some 49 percent of the Polish people oppose the
installation of the U.S. anti-missile shield, while 37
percent approve the idea.

Polish Prime Minister Jaroslaw Kaczynski has said
several times that the government does not plan to
hold a national referendum to decide whether to
install the U.S. anti-missile shield within its
territory, since the United States proposed to resume
negotiations on the issue early this year.
