USA is far away from Poland. And perhaps a time will come when USA will have its hands full with China and will loose it's interest in Europe. And if Poland doesn't maintain good relations with its immediate neighbors such as Germany and Russia, then it may fall on hard times as it did more than once in its historical past.
Being allied with far away countries is no guarantee of peace and security. Before World War II, Poland was allied with France and Great Britain. And guess what, those far away allies abandoned Poland when it became in their interest to maintain good relations with USSR.
It's the immediate neighbors who matter the most in the long run. And keeping good relations with the them is the best guarantee of peace and security.
