Zelenskyy on Poland's shooting down of russian missiles over Ukraine: technically and legally, this issue is being considered
Kyiv • UNN
Zelenskiy said that Poland's shooting down of russian missiles over Ukraine is a fair question that is being considered from a technical and legal point of view, as it concerns the security of Poland and the western regions of Ukraine with gas storage facilities.
The issue of Poland's shooting down russian missiles flying over the territory of Ukraine towards Poland is fair and is already being considered technically and legally. President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy said this during a press conference, an UNN correspondent reports.
First of all, this is not just the security of the NATO country Poland, but simply the security of people in Poland. Because a missile can hit there, or it has already hit there, we have different opinions about this direction. I believe that this was true for the security of the western part of our country, where the gas storage facilities are, and for Poland, because it is the same direction of the missile. I think it would be very fair if Poland helped us to shoot down missiles flying in its direction
According to him, it is the countries that are skeptical of Ukraine in NATO that use gas from gas storage facilities in the west of our country, and they should reduce their skepticism, because then they will be left without gas during the heating season.
We have signed bilateral security guarantees with Poland, which technically address this issue. We have raised this issue legally. I cannot guarantee it 100%, but we have already taken the first step. Then there are nuances
Recall
NATO's policy remains unchanged - the Alliance will not become part of the conflict, NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg said in an interview for a single telethon, answering a question about Poland's ability to shoot down enemy missiles over Ukraine.
