☢️ Rooskies threaten to strike Poland if NATO nukes are deployed there

Russia will make NATO nuclear weapons in Poland one of its primary targets if they are deployed there, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov declared today in the latest escalation of tensions between Moscow and Europe. The comments came after Polish President Andrzej Duda on Monday said his nation would be ready to host Western nukes, given Russia's decision to station intercontinental ballistic missiles in neighbouring Belarus late last year.

President Andrzej Duda said in an interview for "Fakt" that "if our allies decide to deploy nuclear weapons as part of Nuclear Sharing also on our territory to strengthen the security of NATO's eastern flank, we are ready for it." Prime Minister Donald Tusk, referring to this statement on Monday, said that he was waiting for a meeting with Andrzej Duda because "this matter directly and very clearly concerns Polish security." - And I would have to understand the president's intentions well - he added. The president announced that he would meet with the head of government on this matter.
