NATO would strike back if Russia attacks, Sikorski says he warned Moscow
The Polish foreign minister said the warning was intended to deter Russia from taking action that could trigger a wider conflict.
Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski has asserted that Poland would respond to a potential Russian attack with both offensive and defensive measures, according to a Front Sikorskiego program. This warning follows European governments' increased preparations for possible Russian provocations. Prime Minister Donald Tusk stated earlier that intelligence suggested Russia might carry out drone or missile strikes against nations supporting Ukraine in the coming months.
Lithuania reportedly shares this intelligence assessment. Sikorski has reportedly told Russian officials to exercise caution, emphasizing that Poland possesses more combat aircraft than Russia. He frames this warning as a form of deterrence, citing Ukraine's successful strikes on Russian oil refineries as evidence of air power's potential.
European leaders are reportedly gearing up for such attacks, with France preparing to protect critical infrastructure from drone and cyber threats, citing the intensifying Russian hybrid threat.
