As Ukraine urges the West to establish a no-fly zone, US President Joe Biden ruled on Wednesday “improbable” what the missile that hit Poland was launched from Russia, assuring that Washington and its allies intended to determine “exactly“what had happened before deciding on a reaction.
“It is improbable (…) that it was fired from Russia“Biden told reporters following an emergency meeting with the other G7 leaders.”I’ll make sure we can figure out what exactly happened.“.
Poland placed its military on heightened alert on Tuesday following being hit by what it described as a missile.most likely Russian made“, which killed two people and which might mark a major escalation of the conflict in Ukraine with the involvement of a member of NATO.
But there are indications that the missile that hit a village in eastern Poland was an anti-aircraft missile from Ukraine. This is what US President Joe Biden told the G7 leaders on Wednesday, according to the DPA news agency.. He would thus have spoken of a missile of the S-300 system.
