"It's Worth Considering": Sikorski on Shooting Down Drones Over Ukraine

Michał Lubowicki

- This is a Ukrainian request, not a new one [for NATO to shoot down drones over its territory] […] The operation over Poland was an allied one, because our assets in this domain — whether radars, AWACS, or fighter jets — in this case involved assets from Italy, Germany, the Netherlands, and Poland. So we would have to make an alliance decision - said Radosław Sikorski on Polsat News' "Gość Wydarzeń".

- I personally believe that Polish territory must be protected. We ourselves see that even while protecting ourselves, objects and citizens on the ground can be endangered. So if the Ukrainians ask us to do this over their territory, when these Russian missiles or drones are already posing a threat to us, then I personally believe it's worth considering - he stated.

- For now, there is no enthusiasm [among European allies], but constant dripping wears away a stone - he added.
