NATO Secretary General Jesn Stoltenberg implies that NATO doesn’t support Poland’s involvement in eliminating Russian missiles.
“NATO’s policy is unchanged. We will not be involved in this conflict. We will not become part of the conflict,” Jens Stoltenberg stated.
The mechanism of involving Poland in downing Russia’s missiles over Ukraine was considered in a bilateral security agreement between Ukraine and Poland signed on July 8.
“For the first time among the bilateral security agreements already signed, the document enables the interception of missiles and drones in our country’s airspace fired in the direction of Poland,” reads the document.
However, Polish PM Donald Tusk warned that it would be implemented only after positive talks with NATO allies.
Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski provided his opinion on Poland’s approach to the situation with the Russian missiles.
“Our dilemma is the following. If we shoot them down only when they enter our airspace the debris is a threat to our citizens and to our property. And the Ukrainians are saying, ‘Please, we will not mind, do it over our airspace when they’re in imminent danger of crossing into Polish territory’.” Sikorski told BBC.
