Sikorski Urges Poland to Down Russian Missiles Despite NATO Concerns; Majority of Poles Agree
Sep 2, 2024, 06:00 AM
Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski has stated that Poland and other countries bordering Ukraine have an obligation to shoot down incoming Russian missiles before they enter their airspace, despite NATO's skepticism. Sikorski emphasized that NATO membership does not override a country's responsibility to protect its own airspace. This stance comes amid skepticism within NATO about the idea of shooting down Russian missiles over Ukraine, as noted by Polish Defense Minister Kosiniak-Kamysz. Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk also highlighted the difficulty in distinguishing between military and civilian objects, advising restraint. However, a majority of Poles believe that Russian drones should be downed over Polish airspace, according to a recent survey.
