[ブリュッセル 16日 ロイター] -On the 16th the secretary general of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Stoltenberg stated that the missile that landed in Poland was most likely a Ukrainian interceptor. At the same time, he stressed that the ultimate responsibility lies with Russia, which started the war.

NATO held an emergency meeting after a missile hit a Polish village near the Ukrainian border, killing two. In a post-meeting press conference, Secretary-General Stoltenberg said an investigation was ongoing, but added: “There is no indication that this was the result of a deliberate attack, nor is there any indication that the Russia is preparing aggressive military action against NATO “No,” he said.

“Preliminary analysis suggests that the probable cause was a Ukrainian interceptor missile launched to protect Ukrainian territory from a Russian cruise missile attack,” he said.

“I want to be clear, it’s not Ukraine’s fault,” he said, adding: “Russia is responsible because this is a direct result of the ongoing war and yesterday’s Russian attack on Ukraine,” he stressed.
