All signs suggest Polish explosion was caused by air defence missile fired by Ukraine
Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, was quick to blame Russia for firing the missile, a position he held to even after the Polish president’s statement. Britain’s prime minister, Rishi Sunak, told the G20 that Russia was responsible for the deaths in Poland even if it did not fire the missile.
“There is not a single person in the world who hasn’t felt the impact of Putin’s war. Global food markets have been severely disrupted by his attempts to choke off Ukrainian grain supply, there has been an eightfold increase in global energy prices thanks to Russia turning off their gas taps and the economic aftershocks of Putin’s casual disregard for human life will ripple around the world for years to come.
“Most members strongly condemned the war in Ukraine and stressed it is causing immense human suffering and exacerbating existing fragilities in the global economy – constraining growth, increasing inflation, disrupting supply chains, heightening energy and food insecurity, and elevating financial stability risks,” the declaration said.
