Zelensky refuses to admit, says Russian missile hit Poland

Thursday, November 17, 2022.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky insisted that the fatal explosion that killed two people in Poland near his country's border was caused by a Russian missile. Previously, several world leaders and NATO stated that the missile may have come from Ukraine.

"I have no doubt that it is not our missile," he said as quoted by the Daily Mail, Thursday (17/11/2022).

Zelensky believes that Tuesday's explosion was caused by a Russian missile. He based his conclusions on reports from his military that could not be trusted.

Zelensky also said he believed that Ukraine should have been given access to the blast site to engage in a debris analysis to determine the suspected missile's origin.

"Do we have the right to be on the investigative team? Of course," he said.

Zelensky also stressed that Kiev had not accepted an offer from Moscow to start peace talks despite fears of an escalation of war following the incident.

Earlier in the hours after the incident, Zelensky blamed Russian missile terror and Kiev had not acknowledged its own missile involvement.

Oleksiy Danilov, secretary of Ukraine's National Security and Defense Council, said Kyiv wanted access to the site and was still seeing Russian "traces" behind the attack.

But a number of world leaders and the Polish president said it was possible the missile was launched by Ukrainian air defenses. This statement at the same time allayed fears that the attack could drag NATO into direct conflict with Russia, giving Vladimir Putin an excuse to attack the West.

Polish President Andrzej Duda said he had seen "no evidence" the missile was fired by Russia and that it was "very likely" the Soviet-era S-300 rocket came from Ukraine.

"There is no indication that Poland was deliberately targeted," he added.

"Ukrainian defenses launched their missiles in various directions and most likely one of these missiles fell on Polish territory," according to Duda, who added that Russia bore the main responsibility for the attack because Putin started the war in Ukraine.

NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said the same thing, saying the attack was likely a Ukrainian missile, there was no indication it was intentional and there was no indication Russia was preparing an attack on NATO.

"This is not Ukraine's fault. Russia bears the main responsibility for continuing its illegal war against Ukraine," he added.

Ukraine Missiles Hit Poland, Zelensky Accused of Starting World War III

Ukraine Missiles Hit Poland, Zelensky Accused of Starting World War III.

Thursday, November 17, 2022.

Missiles fired by a Ukrainian air defense system hit Poland and killed two people, but Kiev accused Russia of being behind it.

Over the incident, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was accused of trying to start World War III.

"Ukraine tried to start World War III yesterday when a Ukrainian missile attacked a NATO country and killed innocent civilians. Ukraine's leaders lied and blamed Russia. [News agency] AP wrote it without hesitation," wrote conservative United States (US) commentator Benny Johnson on Twitter.

"Ukrainian leaders lied to try and start a full-blown World War III. These are the facts," he continued.

The tweet came shortly after reports that a "Russian-made" missile hit Polish territory near the Przewodow region. Following the report, Zelensky said that it was a very significant escalation amid the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine.

"This is a Russian missile attack on collective security! This is a very significant escalation. Action is needed," Zelensky said in a video after the report.

However, on Tuesday night and Wednesday morning, several officials from the US, Poland and NATO denied that the missiles were launched by Russia as a deliberate attack on Poland, which is a member of NATO.

"There is initial information that disproves that. I don't want to say until we fully investigate," said US President Joe Biden. "No way, according to the trajectory, it was fired from Russia. But we'll see."

Polish President Andrzej Duda also commented on the attack, saying: "At the moment we have no evidence that it was a rocket launched by Russian troops."

“However, there are many indications that it was a missile used by the Ukrainian anti-missile defense,” Duda added, as quoted from NPR, Thursday (17/11/2022).

NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg also said that the missile was likely a stray attack from Ukraine's defense forces but added, "This is not Ukraine's fault. Russia bears primary responsibility for continuing its illegal war against Ukraine."

As well as Benny Johnson, several other high-profile commentators also criticized Ukraine's and Zelensky's initial comments following reports of the missile attack.

"Zelensky is one of the most dangerous psychopaths on the planet right now. He is determined to start another world war," conservative commentator Matt Walsh wrote on Twitter.

Renowned businessman Blair Brandt wrote on Twitter: "So now confirmed that Zelensky's military, perhaps accidentally, sent missiles to Poland and then tried to use them as an excuse for NATO to start World War III. This is not the act of a hero looking to save the world or de -escalation."

According to a Reuters report, the Russian Ministry of Defense issued a statement denying that it fired missiles at Poland and said the reports were a deliberate provocation aimed at escalating the situation.
