Only 11 NATO members currently meet the 2% target as an enduring minimum for defence spending. Major NATO countries such as Germany and Canada spend only 1.5% of their GDP on defence. Biden is unlikely to agree with Poland's proposal.
Poland's spree, by contrast, represents almost a doubling of defence spending compared with the previous year.
However, some experts question whether Warsaw can maintain such a high level of spending over the longer term.
