Russia could strike ‘deep into Europe’, Poland’s foreign minister warns
Fresh calls to build European ‘drone wall’ over Russian threat
- Poland's foreign minister, Radosław Sikorski, warned that Moscow has the capability to strike deep into Europe and urged European leaders to invest in a 'drone wall' along the continent's eastern flank.
- Speaking in London, Mr Sikorski called for Western leaders to commit to supporting Ukraine for at least the next three years, displaying a downed Russian Shahed-136 drone.
- He expressed hope that US President Donald Trump would provide long-range Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine, which could strike targets up to 1,000 miles away in Russia.
- This appeal follows a report from the Kiel Institute indicating a 43 per cent fall in military aid to Ukraine since the beginning of 2025.
- NATO chief Mark Rutte confirmed that the military alliance and the European Union are working together to establish a drone wall, while Britain's Defence Secretary extended UK air patrols over Poland and ramped up drone production for Ukraine.
