"Poland intends to increase the level of financing of its own army to 2 percent of GDP, which means measurable engagement ... and a further significant source of financing in the context of rising economic growth," Komorowski told a joint news conference with visiting U.S. President Barack Obama. --SPA 13:59 LOCAL TIME 10:59 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
