Polish Prime Minister Radoslaw Sikorski asserted that Poland and other countries bordering Ukraine have a constitutional duty to shoot down Russian missiles and drones before they enter their airspace, despite concerns that this could escalate NATO involvement in the conflict. A recent survey indicated that 58.5% of Poles support shooting down unidentified objects during Russian attacks, with a notable majority of women in favor. This stance follows an incident where an aerial object, likely a drone, violated Polish airspace, prompting military officials to suggest that Russia may be testing Poland's air defense systems. However, Poland's Defense Ministry has officially stated that it will not engage in shooting down Russian objects over Ukraine, emphasizing that EU NATO members are not parties to the conflict and that support should come from strengthening Ukraine's air defenses instead. The Polish public sentiment reflects a strong desire for proactive measures to protect their airspace amid ongoing threats from Russia.
