Warsaw names condition under which Poland could shoot down russian missiles over Ukraine

Poland could shoot down russian missiles over Ukraine under one condition. This is a threat to an nuclear power plant.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Poland, Radosław Sikorski, announced this in an interview with the British broadcaster BBC.

The head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Poland was asked where the "red lines" are for Poland in relation to russia and Ukraine, as well as whether Warsaw has the right to shoot down russian missiles in Ukrainian airspace.

He noted that Poland could help Ukraine to protect nuclear power plants.

"The Chornobyl nuclear accident was in Ukraine. Imagine that one of the Russian drones or missiles will go off course and will not fly to Poland or Romania, as has already happened, but will hit one of the Ukrainian nuclear power plants. I believe that we should help Ukraine protect its nuclear power plants from such stray Russian missiles," Sikorski said.

The minister emphasized that this was his opinion and that legally Poland would have the right to self-defense, but "no decisions were made about it."
