President Duda-No Indication Missile Launched From Russia

In a notable de-escalation of a potentially serious international incident, wires carrying comments from Polish President Andrzej Duda, stating that there is no indication that the missile that struck Polish territory on 15 November, killing two civilians, was launched from Russia.

• Says that the rocket was Russian-made, but no proof that it was launched by Russia. Instead, says that it is 'highly probable' that the rocked was used by Ukrainian air defence.
• Says that 'nothing proves there was an intentional attack on Poland'.
• Confirms that an investigation will be conducted by Polish and NATO teams.
• These sort of comments likely indicative that Article 5 of the NATO treaty, invoking a collective defence pact, will not be called upon by Poland, greatly reducing the prospect of NATO-on-Russia conflict.
