Ukraine refuses to accept it was behind Poland missile strike, despite NATO forgiveness
Quote:
Zelenskyy said Wednesday on Ukrainian TV that his top military commanders had assured him that “it was not our missile and not our missile strike” that was the cause of Tuesday’s incident, which provoked an international furor and fears that a wider conflict between NATO and Russia could erupt.
“I have no doubt in [Tuesday’s] report to me personally — from the Commander of the Air Force to Commander-in-Chief [Valeriy] Zaluzhny — that it was not our missile and not our missile strike,” Zelenskyy said.

So maybe it was a Ukrainian air defense missile and maybe it wasn't. It doesn't matter. Blame is placed on Russia regardless.
Well, doesn't matter to us. To Zelenskyy it might matter a great deal, because if it was a Russian-fired missile he could argue that NATO needs to get involved more.
