Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski is skeptical of Russian threats to employ nuclear weapons against Ukraine.
The top diplomat spoke in an interview with The Guardian, Ukrinform reports.
“The Americans have told the Russians that if you explode a nuke, even if it doesn’t kill anybody, we will hit all your targets [positions] in Ukraine with conventional weapons, we’ll destroy all of them,” Sikorsky said.
The head of the Polish Foreign Ministry added that Warsaw supports Ukraine’s right to strike military targets on Russian soil, and stressed that the West should stop constantly limiting itself in what it does to support Ukraine.
“The Russians are hitting the Ukrainian’s electricity grid and their grain terminals and gas storage capacity, civilian infrastructure. The Russian operation is conducted from the HQ at Rostov-on-Don. Apart from not using nuclear weapons, Russia does not limit itself much,” he emphasized.
As Ukrinform reported earlier, in March 2024, two high-ranking officials from Joe Biden’s administration told CNN that at the end of 2022, the United States began thoroughly preparing for a possible Russian nuclear attack on Ukraine.
波兰外交部长拉多斯瓦夫·西科尔斯基在接受《卫报》采访时表示，他对俄罗斯威胁使用核武器对付乌克兰持怀疑态度。
西科尔斯基说，“美国人告诉俄罗斯人，如果你引爆核弹，即使没有杀死任何人，我们也会用常规武器打击你在乌克兰的所有目标 [阵地]，我们会摧毁它们。”
波兰外交部长补充说，华沙支持乌克兰袭击俄罗斯领土上的军事目标权利，并强调西方应该停止不断限制自己对乌克兰的支持。
他强调道，“俄罗斯人正在袭击乌克兰的电网、粮食码头和天然气储存能力以及民用基础设施。俄罗斯的行动是从顿河畔罗斯托夫总部进行的。除了不使用核武器外，俄罗斯并没有限制自己。”
据乌克兰信息通讯社此前报道，2024年3月，拜登政府两名高级官员告诉美国有线电视新闻网（CNN），2022年底，美国就开始为俄罗斯可能对乌克兰发动的核攻击做好充分准备。
