Sikorski: Russian Terrorism Is Not Knocking On EU's Door It Is Already In The House

(MENAFN- UkrinForm) Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski said this at a joint briefing with his Ukrainian counterpart Andrii Sybiha in Kyiv on Sunday, according to an Ukrinform correspondent.

"Russian terrorism is not just knocking on the door – it is already in the house. Let me remind you: Russia's hybrid war has a kinetic dimension. It is not just some minor inconveniences on the internet, not just disinformation or espionage. We have already faced cases of arson in Poland, attempts to cause plane crashes in Lithuania and an attempt to derail a train in Poland," he said, commenting on the attack on the Yahodyn border crossing.

Sikorski recalled the attack on the airport in Leipzig, the dispatch of agents to Britain and Germany, as well as Russian missiles and drones falling on Polish territory. According to Sikorski, today's attack is another escalation.

"If Putin thinks this will weaken our resolve, he is mistaken. On the contrary, it only reinforces our political arguments – both domestically and across the rest of Europe – that Russia is behaving irresponsibly and aggressively, and that we must be prepared to deter Putin," the minister said.

As reported, Polish Deputy Defense Minister Cezary Tomczyk said that Russia's overnight attack on Ukraine should dispel all doubts in Poland about the need for military support for Kyiv, as the war is taking place very close to the Polish border.

Trains in Ukraine are being delayed due to Russian attacks and the threat of further strikes.
