The spokesperson for Poland’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Paweł Wroński states that the NATO missile defense base in Redzikowo, Poland, is purely defensive despite provocative statements from the Russian Federation,

Russia said on Thursday that a new U.S. ballistic missile defence base in northern Poland will lead to an increase in the overall level of nuclear danger, but Warsaw said "threats" from Moscow only strengthened the argument for NATO defences.

Russia's Foreign Ministry has condemned the opening of a US missile defence base in Poland, labelling it a provocation and threatening a possible strike against the facility. In response, Warsaw dismissed Moscow's claims as inadequate.
