Radosław Sikorski upbraids Moscow for being “incapable of living in peace” with its neighbors following a series of incursions into NATO airspace.
Russia shouldn’t complain at the United Nations if its missiles or aircraft are shot down after entering NATO airspace, Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski warned Moscow on Monday.
Sikorski was speaking at an emergency session of the U.N. Security Council in New York. The summit was convened after three Russian military jets entered Estonian airspace for 12 minutes on Sept. 19 before being repelled by Italian F-35s representing NATO.
“I have only one request to the Russian government: If another missile or aircraft enters our space without permission, deliberately or by mistake, and gets shot down and the wreckage falls on NATO territory, please don’t come here to whine about it,” Sikorski said. “You have been warned.”
Not to be outdone, Sikorski sent a further barb Moscow’s way in New York: “We know you don’t care for international law, and you are incapable of living in peace with your neighbors. Your insane nationalism contains a lust for domination that will not cease until you realize that the age of empires is over and that your empire will not be rebuilt.”

As we know, no European country has tried to conquer Russia in the past 300 years.
Napoleon was just trying to liberate the orcs from the Czar or whatever the line is now
I hope they’re not using fucking Napoleon to justify their invasion of Ukraine lmao
“they cook food in water over there what the fuck”
“They do in all of Europe as well(???)”
“Oh my god y’all using soup as a justification for invasion?”
Deadass y’all need to get literate
What layers of irony are you on

The USSR spent the decade before WWII trying to get the west to form an anti-Nazi coalition, but the west was too busy doing copious amounts of trade with the Nazis and signing treaties to do so. Even during the war, the west cloaked how much trade they were still doing, in the case of companies like Ford and Coke.
Westerners really are the most propagandized people on earth
LMAO
Libs can just lie and nothing will happen, LMAO
wow, that’s the hardest gymnastics i read all day, and i’ve read some pretty bad far-right punditry today.
Because opposing fascist Russia is “far right” lol
When you definitely know what fascism is.
Oh, so you are critiquing your friends.
Horseshoe theory is garbage, and so is your understanding of history, as well as where most of the nazis went after ww2 (Ukraine, NATO countries, including Canada).
Judging by your other responses in this thread, you need to stop kneejerking and actually do some journalism. I realize my comment isn’t gonna be the one that gets you to do some self-crit and maybe ask a few tough questions about the history of NATO but maybe over time you’ll come to realize we all have a lot more in common with each other than with those at the top who control narratives. Putin is dogshit, the Russian oligarchy is dogshit, but so is the vast majority of the dogshit coming from the West (the ones who also happen to have more power and, as you’re demonstrating, ideological fervor)
Until then, keep using tankie unironically against your perceived enemies, that word means very little to anyone besides fascists and the ill-informed.
