Ukraine – The Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelensky, insists that the missile that killed two people in Poland on Tuesday was Russian. The representatives of NATO, the United States and Poland stated that the incident was most likely caused by a Ukrainian missile that went astray during the defense against the massive Russian air attack. President Zelensky, on the other hand, claims that he has no reason not to believe the reports of his military commanders, which state the opposite, and has asked that the Ukrainian experts should participate in the international investigation into this issue. The head of NATO, Jens Stoltenberg, declared, after a meeting of the ambassadors from the allied states, that Russia is, anyway, the main responsible, because it continues the illegal war against Ukraine. Moscow denied any involvement in the explosion in Poland, and the Russian ambassador to the UN accused Kyiv and Warsaw of seeking to cause a direct conflict between Russia and NATO through their statements. The Kremlin said, however, that it saw no reason for escalation after the incident in Poland.
