WASHINGTON: Any deal with the United States to put interceptor missiles in Poland must also make Warsaw - which faces an unhappy Russia to its east - more secure, Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski said on Thursday.
Either the United States must help convince Russia that the proposed defensive missile shield does not pose a threat to Moscow, or find "some other way" to address the extra risk to Poland from the project, Sikorski said in a speech during a visit to Washington.
"As many of you know, Poland has come under political pressure, and has even been blackmailed by some of our neighbours, who fiercely oppose this project," Sikorski said at the American Enterprise Institute think-tank."Our aim is to contribute to the security of the United States, to NATO, but also to make Warsaw more secure," he said.
With Russia helping Iran set up their new nuclear plant, installing missile interceptors is a necessity. If Russia refuses could this be a sign that something is up? From this article we learn about some of Russia's diplomatic interactions. The interactions of countries with other countries is a key factor of comparative politics.
