A bipartisan group of U.S. lawmakers has called on President Joe Biden to allow Poland to use its air defense over Ukraine to shoot down Russian missiles. This was reported by The Hill, according to UNN.

Details

In a letter signed by U.S. House members Joe Wilson, a Republican, and Steve Cohen, a Democrat, Biden is asked to “grant Poland the authority to intercept and neutralize missiles over Ukraine, especially those that threaten to invade Polish airspace.

The request is based on Poland's desire to use its air defense capabilities over Ukrainian airspace to protect itself from Russian missiles and to help Ukraine in its defense.

Despite Russia's constant escalation of hybrid warfare - violations of airspace, attacks on critical infrastructure, and attempts to destabilize democratic institutions - we have not dared to confront these threats decisively, allowing Russia to wage war against the Alliance with minimal consequences,

- Wilson and Cohen note.

According to the congressmen, in this context, Poland's request to intercept and neutralize missiles over Ukraine is both necessary and urgent as a mechanism to support Ukraine and protect NATO's front line.

Sikorski believes that Poland should shoot down Russian missiles before they enter the country's airspace02.09.24, 14:04 • [views_79413]
