Nuclear weapons in Poland will become a legitimate goal for Russia, Duda knows this - Zakharova

USA (bbabo.net), - If US nuclear weapons are deployed on Polish territory, they will immediately attract the attention of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces and will become a legitimate target for destruction in a situation of direct military conflict with NATO. This was stated by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova, commenting on the words of Polish President Andrzej Duda.

Earlier, Duda announced his readiness to deploy nuclear weapons on the country’s territory as part of the NATO Nuclear Sharing program.

“Warsaw appears to be maniacally seeking to attract even more attention from military planners in the Russian General Staff. It is not difficult to assume that if American nuclear weapons appear on Polish territory, the corresponding facilities will immediately join the list of legitimate targets for destruction in a situation of direct military conflict with NATO,” the diplomat noted.

She recalled that such provocative statements by the Polish leadership are not new.

“The Polish authorities have not been hiding their ambitions for a long time in terms of how to “cling closer” to the US nuclear weapons stationed in Europe and are actively weaving them into their deeply hostile policy towards Russia. It is clearly not enough for Poland that it is already a member of NATO, which arbitrarily positions itself as a “nuclear alliance.” Moreover, Warsaw is intensively participating in the development of the so-called “joint nuclear missions” of the North Atlantic bloc as a state providing direct support for such operations,” Zakharova said.

As the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry emphasized, “all this together leads to the fact that in our own military planning we treat Poland with special attention and in accordance with the threats that arise for Russia with the participation of this country.”

“The Polish factor, of course, was also taken into account by us and our Belarusian friends in the process of taking additional measures to strengthen the security of the Union State,” the diplomat said.
