Sikorski Confronts Lavrov at UN: ‘Enough Is Enough’
Sikorski said Russia has failed to defeat Ukraine and warned that Moscow is exporting sabotage, airspace violations and covert attacks across Europe.
- On Wednesday, Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski confronted Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov at the United Nations Security Council, directly refuting Kremlin claims about Ukraine's 2014 revolution and the Russian language.
- Sikorski rejected Lavrov's description of the 2014 removal of former Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych as a 'bloody coup,' citing his presence in Kyiv with German and French counterparts during the parliamentary vote.
- Addressing Lavrov, Sikorski noted Russia failed to conquer Kyiv in over four years or Donbas in over 12 years, while Ukraine—despite a one-tenth smaller economy—thwarted the Kremlin's plans.
- Warning that Russian aggression is spreading, Sikorski pointed to airspace violations across Europe, sabotage near NATO borders, and Russian hit squads that killed individuals in Spain, Britain, Poland, and Germany.
- Citing a recent US criminal case involving a Russian intelligence network charged with conspiring to commit murder, Sikorski urged Lavrov to tell Russian President Vladimir Putin the imperial war must end.
