NATO's secretary general Jens Stoltenberg said Wednesday that there was "no indication" that a missile that landed inside Poland, killing two people on Tuesday, was a deliberate attack by Russia, "and we have no indication that Russia is planning offensive military actions against NATO allies."
"I think this demonstrates the dangers connected to the ongoing war in Ukraine, but it hasn't changed our fundamental assessment of the threat against NATO allies," Stoltenberg told journalists Wednesday after a meeting of NATO's ambassadors.
He said that preliminary findings indicated that it was likely the missile was Ukrainian air defense, but that "Russia bears responsibility for what happened in Poland yesterday," because it was a "direct result" of ongoing Russian attacks on Ukraine.
