According to him, the Russian aircraft carried out dangerous maneuvers in the international airspace over the Baltic Sea.
“These actions were deliberate and threatened,” the minister said.
According to him, the Polish pilots were able to detect, intercept and effectively push the Russian plane.
The Polish Defense Minister also commented on the frequent provocations of Russia in the airspace near NATO borders – especially because of the geographical location of the Kaliningrad region, from where Russian aircraft often fly without transpositors, without submitting flight plans and without connection with the dispatching services.
“We are resistant to provocations, but we respond decisively-both independently and within the Alliance,” Kosiniak-Kkysh emphasized.
Note that on May 21, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk stated that the Russian ship “Shadow Fleet” performed “suspicious maneuvers” near the transmission cable connecting Poland and Sweden.

Also in response to the actions of Estonian military Russia sent the fighterwhich, according to the Estonian army, violated the country’s airspace.
