Russia was not the one who fired the missile in Poland, and the incident was contained within limited repercussions that did not exceed the haste of NATO members to express concern, sympathy, and willingness to support a member state.
According to Washington, this fact did not prevent the investigations from continuing to complete the picture of what happened, on the impact of a positive signal from Moscow, which praised its professionalism in dealing with the issue, in exchange for what the Russian Defense Ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov described as statements that constitute a deliberate provocation issued by the Ukrainian leadership and others.
In analyzing the missile accident in Poland, Donald Jensen, the former US diplomat in Moscow - in his interview with the Behind the News program - interpreted the Western acceleration to contain this crisis early as proving the seriousness of the Russian aggression against Ukraine, as it may lead to a global crisis.
Also, Ukraine is fighting for its continuity against a harsh, aggressive Russian war, and therefore it was natural that there were expectations of Russia's misbehavior again, and there was careful Western scrutiny of the incident, as the Biden administration was very keen to reveal the details of the incident.
On the Russian side, Moscow was amazed by the hysteria of Zelensky, who began calling NATO to join the battles, as if Russia was attacking Poland and recalling the pivotal battles in history to send a message to Western countries for a direct confrontation with Russia, according to Alexander Gornov, a professor of international journalism at the Moscow University of International Relations.
He commented on Poland's reaction that it spreads hatred against Russia and tries to make the situation more difficult, despite its denial that this missile is Russian, according to its official statements.
It is noteworthy that NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said at the end of the meeting that there is no confirmation from NATO that the missile launch at Poland was deliberate, nor that Russia is carrying out actions against NATO.
Among the suspicions and accusations, the US position came from the highest level to confirm that Russia had no hand in the missile that fell on Polish territory, without eliminating the need for an investigation and a meeting between ambassadors of representatives of NATO member states.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky also reiterated in his latest statements that the missile that fell on Polish territory was Russian.
