Poland discusses possibility of shooting down Russian missiles over Ukraine - Foreign Ministry spokesman

Poland is considering the possible involvement of the country's air defense systems in the destruction of Russian missiles over Ukrainian territory that could fly into Poland. This was stated by Polish Foreign Ministry spokesman Paweł Wroński.


“This issue is being considered from a legal and technical point of view, but there are no decisions in this case,” Wroński said.


He noted that the Ukrainian side had already approached the Polish side with such an initiative.


According to Wroński, talks on this issue in Poland arose after a Russian missile violated the country's airspace in March this year, staying in it for 39 seconds.


He explained that the discussions revolve around whether Polish air defense systems could shoot down such missiles over the territory of Ukraine and what the legal consequences of such a step would be.


At the same time, the Polish Foreign Ministry representative emphasized that there is no question of the physical transfer of elements of the Polish air defense system to Ukraine.
