A spokesperson for Russia’s Foreign Ministry has said Moscow could target a major Western military base in Poland, as Russian officials continue to ramp up their rhetoric in an escalatory week.
The air defense base opened in the Polish town of Redzikowo on the Baltic coast on November 13. Known as “Aegis Ashore,” the site holds US ballistic missiles and is part of a larger NATO missile shield designed to intercept incoming missiles.
Zakharova’s comments are the latest in a series of escalatory remarks from the Kremlin, following major policy shifts from Ukraine and its Western allies this week.
