Consensus Builds Around Missile Blast Not Being Deliberate Attack On NATO Member
Polish President Andrzej Duda said it is "highly likely" that his country will request NATO Article 4 consultations after the missile blast in a village near the border with Ukraine, while local media report that Warsaw is seeking to rally its allies through various diplomatic channels.
- The Polish President noted that there is no definitive evidence yet as to who launched the "Russian-made" missile, refraining from directly blaming Moscow for the strike. He described the blast as a "one-off" incident, not expected to repeat in future.
- Consensus within the analyst community is leaning against a deliberate Russian attack on Poland. Initial reports pointed to a stray Russian cruise missile, albeit some OSINT analysts with large social media traction have flagged the risk of the projectile being a malfunctioning Ukrainian anti-aircraft missile (which was dismissed by Kyiv) fired against incoming Russian rockets.
- Either of these scenarios implies that the blast was a tragic accident rather than a hostile act, which would reduce the risk of a direct clash between Russia and NATO. The lack of clear blame attribution for the launch and the decision to invoke Article 4 (i.e. the provision on joint NATO consultations as opposed to Article 5 on collective defence) point in the same direction. More light will be shed on the blast as the touted investigation progresses.
- The incident may encourage Western leaders to step up diplomatic and economic pressure on Russia, reinforce NATO's eastern flank and/or increase military aid to Ukraine, the blast ultimately being a consequence of Moscow's ongoing invasion. As a reminder, on Tuesday Russia unleashed its largest bombing of Ukrainian energy facilities since the start of the war, causing further damage to the nation's critical infrastructure ahead of the winter season.
