Volodymyr Zelenskiy: Requests access to all the data that the Western allies have on the missile that fell in Poland

Its president Ukrainian, Volodymyr Zelenskyrequested late Wednesday night (16/11) that Ukrainian experts be given access to “all data” available to the Western partners, as well as to allow them to visit the site of the explosion caused by the missile that fell into Polandnear the Ukrainian border.

“We want to look at all the details, everything”he underlined. “This is why our experts must participate in the work of the international investigation and gain access to all the evidence available to our partners, as well as (allowing them to go) to the site of the explosion”he stated during his night speech.

These statements seem to reflect a change in the position of Zelensky, who insisted until earlier today that the particular missile belonged to Russia, contradicting NATO and Washington who estimate that it was a Ukrainian anti-aircraft missile. However, Zelensky argued in his video message that “Russian aggression claimed two lives of Polish citizens”.

“I have no doubt that this missile was not ours,” the Ukrainian president said on television at the time. “I believe it was a Russian missile,” he said.

The White House, for its part, said it “saw nothing to contradict” the assessment made by Warsaw, according to which the missile that fell in Poland “most likely” came from Ukrainian air defenses.

Today was a long and hard day. And now, in the evening, it seems that the events of the morning happened at least yesterday or the day before yesterday…And the day is not over yet… There is also a meeting of the UN Security Council regarding the new wave of Russian missile terror. We are monitoring statements, working with partners, and defending Ukrainian interests. Of course, one of the main issues at the Security Council meeting is the situation in Poland, the clarification of all the circumstances of how Russian aggression crossed the Polish border. The Ukrainian position is very transparent: we strive to establish all the details, every fact. That is why we need our specialists to join the work of the international investigation and to get access to all the data available to our partners and the site of the explosion. All our information is in full access, we have been giving it to our partners since the night, from those first hours when the world began to find out what happened. I spoke with President Duda last night and expressed my condolences to him – Russian aggression took the lives of two Polish citizens. And I want all of us to honor the memory of all those whose lives were taken by this Russian war with a minute of silence.
