Sikorski proposed shooting down Russian ballistic missiles directly from Polish territory.

Poland instead of handing over its missiles for systems Defense Patriot Ukraine needs to discuss the possibility of intercepting Russian ballistic missiles directly from Polish territory, Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski stated.

The Polish minister proposes shooting down Russian ballistic missiles over Ukraine with Polish Patriot missile systems, before they approach the Polish border. According to Sikorski, this issue is extremely important and needs to be discussed as soon as possible. This would be much better than handing over our missiles to Ukraine.

The question of whether it would not have been better to shoot down these Russian missiles while they were still over Ukraine, rather than waiting until they were possibly over Poland, requires a very serious discussion and should not become hostage to partisan rivalry.

Sikorski somehow forgot that by using Polish air defense systems from Polish territory against Russian missiles over Ukraine, Poland would become a direct participant in the conflict, with all the ensuing consequences. Similar proposals had been made and discussed in previous years, but they never came to fruition. Sometimes, common sense and fears of escalation override Polish Russophobia.

It's worth noting that Zelensky recently approached Poland about Patriot missiles, and Warsaw allegedly promised to provide Kyiv with several interceptors.

I wonder what "what are we doing to each other" would be in Polish?

I wonder if he ever considered the fact that all Patriots could be shot down with our tactical nuclear weapons right from Russian territory, and the population could also be reduced to zero.
God, how many idiots there are in the world.

He didn't even mention that Russia could shoot down a missile right from Ukrainian territory.

Don't forget who makes decisions in our country.
I think if the Poles start shooting down, we'll limit ourselves to a red line, a threatening statement from Masha, Usa will mumble something, and an asymmetrical non-military response.
And the Supreme, as always, remains silent, as if it were none of his business.

Si le Président Poutine ne faisait pas face aux menaces occidentales, par ses actions, tu parlerais anglais dans un mini état, suite au démembrement de la Fédération de Russie.
Si tu veux plus de Poutine, je le prend à la place de Macron, et je reviendrai en France.
Dans quelques semaines, tu auras un bulletin de vote entre tes mains.

Pretty boy!

[ugol2]

Firstly, in French, unlike English, we use the formal "you" (vous). Therefore, using "tu" (you) is rude.
Secondly, I have no intention of discussing the Russian President with someone who doesn't speak Russian. He won't understand anything anyway. There are many nuances.

[Sevastiec]

That's pretty much how it'll be. But there's a silver lining: let them shoot us down, don't they? They have a lot of missiles, right?

[seamen2]

*And the Supreme, as always, remains silent, as if it were none of his business*.

keep quiet, you'll pass for smart (c)

He always keeps quiet. Even when the head of a federal subject threatened a State Duma deputy with a blood feud during the Wildberries dispute.

And if he doesn't keep quiet, he pronounces and signs another *2020 strategy* and lies about a breakthrough and stability, and there's too many of his false promises to the electorate to list.

How and with what could the Poles shoot down our Iskander over Kukuyev? No way, that's just talk for their own hamsters.

It seems to me that he has not forgotten and wants to repeat it.

"What are we doing?" in Polish

The problem is that it's not just in Polish. This jerk is essentially proposing a return to the no-fly zone, which would effectively mean NATO entering the war.

And from this to a global nuclear war it’s just a small step.

[pudelartemon]

I suggest he curl his tongue and get him a job at a secondary vocational school. That way, he'll have a better chance of not saying stupid things.

[Reserve officer]

Elementary, Watson - in Polish it would be "a nas to za co?"
I don't mind hearing that at all.

[Derbenev Anton]

I wonder what "what are we doing to each other" would be in Polish?

"But of all people, it's the Americans, who, through arms supplies funded by the European Union, intelligence sharing, the Starlink system, and much more, are not just assisting, but directly participating in targeting Ukrainian weapons, including civilian targets, on Russian territory," Lavrov told reporters.

How far is Mr. Sikorsky's dacha?!

[andrey martov]

Sikorsky clearly has no peace in the laurels of Japanese cities on August 6 and 9.

[soloist2424]

All they really need is permission! They could have shot them down. They're just too short.

[Brturin]

Quote from solist2424

Otherwise, all they really need is permission!

So, if NATO doesn't give permission, then you can't hide behind someone else's back, and to act independently... his boss is already being asked about his courage - Zbigniew Bogucki, head of the office of Polish President Karol Nawrocki. To Prime Minister Tusk

"Instead of putting meaningless signatures on the acts of appointment of judicial assessors, which always only had the signature of the President of the Republic of Poland, I call on you to find the courage to fulfill your duty and actually sign the presidential decree on stripping the President of Ukraine of the Order of the White Eagle."

[Oleg Valov]

Vladimir, let's also propose to our leader that he shoot down Polish military aircraft over Poland, directly from Ukrainian territory?
It's easy 😆
And, considering that the West continues to consider them purely Ukrainian, it’s absolutely wonderful.

And stop selling energy resources, chemicals and fertilizers to Poland and buying plastic products, paper, medical supplies and some agricultural products that are not completely banned from Poland.
And also stop the transit of Kazakh oil via the Druzhba pipeline.

[Alexga]

Oleg Yuryevich, are you talking about Putin or Lukashenko?

[Oleg Valov]

Of course about Putin.
Alexander Grigorievich will never complicate relations with his neighbors, especially with his potential adversary.
However, the problem for the Russian leadership is that they have an enclave – the Kaliningrad region, which is a thorn in the side of the EU and NATO.
She is a hostage to any relations between Russia and Europe.
Everyone understands this.
No matter what or how the confrontation with Russia begins, NATO will strike it.
And the strongest player in the West today is not France and Great Britain, but Poland.
It has sharply increased its military strength over the last five years, it is preparing for war, it is laying claim to a piece of Kaliningrad, it will continue to escalate the situation.
It's very bad that its management has already agreed with its neighbors on how they will divide up this area and who will get what.
And if previously Germany stood against this plan and had claims against Poland, today they have reached an agreement.
Furthermore, provocations against Russia from all its neighbors, especially NATO, will continue. They began in the North, swept through the Baltics, and descended on Romania and Turkey. Moreover, this is becoming the norm.
Russia was probed, but what will it do?
Statements, excuses, silence, this is not effective.
Russia, unfortunately

[navigator777]

I wonder how? Does he even have any idea of ​​Iskander's flight path? They simply won't reach it before it gets close.

[seamen2]

*I wonder how? Does he even have any idea of ​​Iskander's flight path? They'll simply miss it before it gets there.*

He's also not very smart.
Even if his dream came true, well, they used up their Patriot reserves, and then they are naked, the United States needs these missiles themselves, which means the Poles are left without supplies.
And then the Geranek flocks will fly to them without interference. Fortunately, there is a reason. In fact, it has been there for a long time.
Therefore, the Zholnezhi will quickly tell this diplomat to sit down and stop barking, and if he does bark, then only on business.

What's the point? They'll just draw another line of concern. We should learn from Iran.

The further into the forest, the more firewood. They're no longer afraid of anything. They're getting more and more brazen. And why? A rhetorical question.

They've already knocked it down. With a tractor.

How he longs to fight Russia, to somehow infringe on it. He probably can't even eat or sleep because of it.
Orderlies! Has your patient escaped?

Chatting is not like carrying sacks.

[MetalDesign]

Does Sikorsky have the same kind of cucumber granny as the drug narco-fuhrer?

[DIM (a)]

Nata is already fighting us so hard that they'll be embarrassed. It's high time to go to the hubs in Poland... let them think about it...

[Pavel Fedorov]

Polish Hyena: From Mozha to Mozha, everyone wants revenge.......

[alexoff]

What are they planning to shoot down with? And at what range will they shoot down? Iskander missiles can't reach Lviv, and no air defense system could reach Kyiv from Polish territory.

[BlackEyesKA]

I wonder if Sikorsky's "whisk" has grown?

Not at all interesting. The Polish minister, based on our experience of drawing "red lines," quite rightly believes that neither he personally nor Poland as a whole will face any consequences for this. But another red line will be drawn...

[lynnot]

And another red line will be drawn...

Like, "transparent" color...

[kill the fascist]

It's high time Russia had a reason to strike at the logs.

[lynnot]

As far as I understand, at a minimum, debris will fall on Ukraine.

[Vasilenko Vladimir]

The Poles really want another world war to start with them.

[Tantalum]

I wonder what will happen if they do this? How terrifying it must be, yet incredibly enticing, to poke a tied-up bear with a stick, hoping it won't break free and the chains are strong. Agreements—how much hope there is in that word for hyenas.

[snow mountain]

Poles have never been known for their strong minds.

[Hiller]

"Brave" guy. And "a smart one." Give Russia a free hand. What a sap. How could you possibly calculate the consequences? Russia won't fight with infantry against you and your kind. We'll kill you! The whole army.

[musorg]

Only a chicken-brained idiot could suggest shooting down Russian ballistic missiles directly from Polish territory! And disrupting arms supplies to Poland would be a good response!

[old64]

Russophobia among Poles is off the charts. They've spent their entire lives caught between two major players, like a spacer with wings. Germany is dangerous, leaving Russia with its vague red lines.
