The Russian Foreign Ministry, through its spokesperson, has declared the newly established U.S. missile base in Poland as a 'priority target' for potential Russian military action. This statement comes in response to the perceived provocation of the base's establishment, which Russia claims increases the overall level of nuclear danger. The base, located in Redzikowo, Poland, has been highlighted by Russian officials as a strategic target that could be hit with Russia's new weapons, escalating tensions between Russia and NATO. Furthermore, the ministry warned that the appearance of NATO forces in Ukraine would signify the start of a war against Russia.
