Ukraine has the right to strike at air bases from which Russian bombers take off - Sikorsky.
Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorsky stated that Ukraine has the right to strike at air bases in Russia from which occupiers launch their bombers.
He told Le Monde in an interview.
Sikorsky expressed that Kyiv has the right to shoot down Russian bombers launching rockets at Ukrainian territory. Also, according to him, Ukraine can strike at Russian air bases from which Russian bombers take off.
The head of Poland's foreign ministry emphasized that the majority of the UN General Assembly condemned Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine and Kyiv as a victim of aggression has the right to defend itself, including on Russian territory.
"I understand the arguments of those who need to control the temperature of this conflict. But what bothers me is that we are constantly asked about Putin's "red lines," but never about our own. Poland is the only country in the European Union that borders both Russia and Ukraine, and we have a fairly obvious "red line" that involves preventing the deaths of our citizens from Russian missiles or drones that have penetrated our airspace," he said.
At the same Time, Sikorsky shared his opinion on Russian missiles and drones crossing the Polish border.
"According to our constitution, the primary duty of the Polish army is to defend our borders, which also pertains to our airspace. When a missile approaches our airspace, my personal opinion is that we have the right to defend ourselves. There is absolutely no place for these missiles here," the minister emphasized.
