- To the representatives of Russia, I will say only this: we know that you do not care about international law and are incapable of living in peace with your neighbors. Your insane nationalism contains a lust for domination that will not cease until you realize that the age of empires has passed, and your empire will never be rebuilt - said Radosław Sikorski during the UN Security Council.

- Do not start another [war]. [...] I have only one request to the Russian government: if another missile or plane enters our airspace without permission, intentionally or accidentally, and is shot down, and the wreckage falls onto NATO territory, then please, do not come to us to beg about it. You have been warned - he continued.
