Polish PM Donald Tusk vows to press ahead with military modernisation after Russian drone incursion
""Russia's war is escalating, not ending""
""We will do everything to ensure that our allied obligations, which are so important from our point of view today, are fulfilled by our allies,""
""We hope that the Americans will meet the deadlines. We would like the first batch of the F-35s to reach you in May, and so""
Multiple Russian drones entered Polish airspace during a wave of strikes on Ukraine, prompting Poland to impose air traffic restrictions in the eastern part of the country at the army's request for national security reasons. European officials characterized the incursion as a deliberate provocation that raised fears of a wider conflict and underscored stalled U.S.-led peace efforts. Poland said some drones originated from Belarus, where Russian and local forces were assembling for war games, and closed its border with Belarus at midnight. Prime Minister Tusk praised Polish and Dutch NATO responses at Lask air base and announced planned F-35 deliveries beginning next year to strengthen Polish and NATO defenses.
