Russia issued a stark warning to Poland on Monday over the NATO member’s repeated proposals to down Russian missiles over Ukraine with its air defense systems.
Since March, Warsaw has mulled intercepting Russian missiles that go close to its borders during the war in Ukraine. Tensions have risen between Russia and Poland throughout the conflict, and Warsaw has been forced to scramble its fighter jets to protect its airspace during large-scale Russian missile strikes on its war-torn neighboring country.
Poland has said that Russian missiles fired at western Ukraine entered its airspace on multiple occasions. Russia has said incursions were accidental.
Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski said in July that the proposal to down Russian missiles over Ukraine was first put forward by Kyiv, and that it was under consideration as part of a joint defense agreement signed by both parties. “At this stage, this is an idea. What our agreement said is that we will explore this idea,” he said at the sidelines of a NATO summit.
Poland has been a member of the NATO military alliance since 2004.
Oleg Tyapkin, the head of the European department at the Russian foreign ministry, warned of its response if Poland attempts to intercept missiles over Ukraine, Russia’s state-run news agency RIA Novosti reported.
If Poland “succumbs to an adventurous impulse and decides to attempt to intercept long-range weapons legally used by our armed forces to neutralize military threats emanating from Ukrainian territory to Russia, then the response to them will be adequate and quite concrete,” said Tyapkin.
Newsweek reached out to the Polish Foreign Ministry and NATO for comment.
Polish Foreign Ministry spokesman Pawel Wronski told Ukrainian news outlet Ukrinform in late May that discussions on the matter began in Warsaw after a Russian missile fired at Ukraine in March entered its airspace. The Russian missile, which was traveling around 500 miles per hour at 1,200 feet altitude, entered Poland’s airspace for 39 seconds near the village of Oserdow.
The Foreign Ministry spokesman ruled out the possibility of Poland sending Ukraine its air defense systems.
“There is no discussion of this in Poland at all. There is no possibility of the Polish air defense system being outside the country’s borders,” Wronski said at the time.
NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg appeared to signal last month that the military alliance would ultimately oppose Poland intercepting Russian missiles over Ukraine.
“NATO will support Ukraine, and we have now increased our support…But NATO’s policy is unchanged—we will not be involved in this conflict,” he said, Ukrainska Pravda reported.
Fecking get on with it, Putin!
Nazi NATO forces masquerading as UKrainian Nazis are close to Polish and other NATO borders, so what do the Nazis expect?
Some Russian missiles will deviat course when fired on. Maybe the UKrainian Nazis should take responsibility?
The hard facts, Putin is being backed into a corner, not just by the Nazi loons, but also by his own elites. Something has got to give.
Either Putin acts, or he’s gone. MI6 and the SAS will take out a Russian nuclear power station. They don’t care. For bankrupt Britain, this is for its survival, and the Russians are fighting for their survival. It’s going to go nuclear, unless there’s a military coup in a major NATO power.
There were golden windows for coups in the past, but it could still happen. Do the German military want their lands irradiated, or even nuked? Same for France. A Russian tactical nuke (small) is 70/75kt. Hiroshima was 20kt at most. The big 500kt bombs will shortly follow. One Sarmat missile can carry 10 x 500kt nukes. One Sarmat descimates the entire UK. We are talking about nothing left in the UK. Everyone will die over the first 6 weeks, and no aid will ever arrive. Nazi UK is on very thin ice.
If a Russian nuclear power station is hit, Putin acts, or he’s gone and someone else will use nukes.
The funny thing, and it’s very funny. UK sheeple are oblivious to what could happen anytime.
America has made no cultural contributions to the world, so it should be expelled from Europe
They won’t stop poking until they go too far and inevitably draw us in.
ANOTHER RACIST ATTACK ON 95 YEAR OLD GERMAN WOMAN
The German lady Ursula Haverbeck who lives right neara wartime German work camp has been repeatedly convicted of inciting hatred. the attacks on her are actually more a show of racism.
Now, a new trial against the 95-year-old woman has begun in the port city of Hamburg. Ursula Haverbeck went on trial again on Friday in the German city of Hamburg for incitement to hatred.
Haverbeck has repeatedly and publicly denied the genocide of European Jews by the Nazis during World War II.
This has made her a popular figure round the world
On November 12, 2015, she was sentenced to 10 months in prison without parole by the Hamburg District Court.
She then filed an appeal. Almost nine years later, the case is once again before the courts.
What is the case about?
The current case concerns statements made by Haverbeck in April 2015 on the sidelines of a trial against the later convicted SS member Oskar Gröning at the Lüneburg District Court and in a television interview.
According to prosecutors, she told journalists that Auschwitz was not an extermination camp but a labor camp. In a television interview with the NDR “Panorama” program, she also denied that mass extermination had taken place there.
The 95-year-old, who lives in the western German state of North Rhine-Westphalia, has convicted multiple times of incitement over 20 years, including serving prison sentences without parole.
In 2022, a Berlin court sentenced her to one year in prison without probation for incitement to hatred. The verdict is final, but the prison sentence has not yet begun.
What did Haverbeck say?
“I never denied the Holocaust,” the 95-year-old said, claiming that she had only asked questions.
Her statements in TV reports were not questions, but statements of fact, the judge stressed.
The judge asked where the defendant stood today with regard to her previous statements. Haverbeck then repeated one of the statements.
Because of her age, Haverbeck was accompanied by a representative of the forensic medical service.
The long trip was far too strenuous for her, said Haverbeck, who repeatedly complained of the “infirmities of old age.”
I think you’re really fit,” the judge said. The trial is scheduled to continue on June 12 and June 26.
The judge said you are not allowed your own opinion
we will tell you what to think ?
george orwell ” the day will come when telling the truth will be a crime ”
Dr Paul Wilson ” only jews can commit genocide “
Poland was instrumental in starting WW2. Robbing and killing ethnic Germans then refusing to negotiate an end to it when England ‘guaranteed’ Poland’s security which didn’t turn out well for them. Today their mouths are overloading their rectums once again.
The Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski is married to the Neocon Jewess Anne Applebaum.
So that means his children are Jewish.
Clearly he’s a compromised and ultimately an agent for Israel.
PotatoHead Poles just cant help being dumb…
already in the nordic Gods Twilight before 2000 years
it was said that the gods will throw their spears over
the oceans from continent to continent . ENDTIME
