"Kiev knows exactly what it is doing, and it will be disastrous for Ukraine in the long run," writes Do Rzeczy's columnist regarding the Polish missile incident.
"Kiev's reaction to the rocket incident that claimed the lives of two Poles is shameful," Ryszard Czarnecki, the ruling Law and Justice (PiS) MEP, begins his article According to the author, it is understandable that the tragedy in Przewodów happened. "What happened next shouldn't have happened, but it did."
The fact that Kiev tried at all costs to shake off the responsibility, even in the face of American evidence, must have caused disgust and disappointment in the Poles.
- says Czarnecki, who says that he should have simply admitted the mistake to the Ukrainian side.
"The 'it wasn't us narrative' was the best possible gift to Russia," writes the author, arguing that the attitude of the Ukrainians can now be used by Moscow to drive a wedge between Poles and Ukrainians.
The MEP also objected to the fact that Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dimitro Kuleba appointed the former ambassador to Germany, Andrij Melnyik, who is known for his outspokenness, as According to Czarnecki, this is a man who "relativized the World War II crimes committed by Ukrainian chauvinists against Poles and Jews."
And the worst thing is that Kiev knows exactly what it is doing and why. The long-term consequences of this will be catastrophic for Ukraine"
- concludes the Polish politician.
