🇵🇱Polish Foreign Ministry: NATO is considering shooting down Russian missiles near its borders - Deputy Foreign Minister of Poland Andrzej Szejna told RMF FM.
The deputy head of diplomacy, speaking about Russia, emphasized that "we are dealing with a terrorist, organized, well-equipped state with weapons and modern technologies." It was rather an intentional act, the Russian Federation did not want to provoke anything , they knew that if the missile moved further into Poland, it would be shot down. There would be a counterattack. It was planned to check the strength of defense and the vigilance of the Polish armed forces - said Michał Zieliński's guest
Szejna admitted that the issue of shooting down missiles that are flying towards the territory of the North Atlantic Alliance is being considered. Various concepts are being analyzed within NATO, including: for such missiles to be shot down when they are very close to the NATO border - but this would have to happen with the consent of the Ukrainian side and taking into account the international consequences - then NATO missiles would hit Russian missiles outside the territory of the Pact - noted our guest
It cannot be that the aggressor will impose certain rules on us every time. He must get used to the fact that the NATO side, the side of democratic countries, the EU will start to set a certain tone when it comes to resolving the conflict in Ukraine, Szejna emphasized.
We take Putin's threats very seriously. He showed that he is capable of anything. What it has achieved so far, apart from hundreds of thousands of wounded and dead on both sides, is that Sweden and Finland have joined NATO. We have another NATO summit in July. We have the consolidation of EU countries, the reactivation of the Weimar Triangle - he enumerated.
