Poland, Zelensky Caught Spreading Misinformation About 'Russian' Missile Strike
Russian missiles strike in Poland could have resulted in NATO troops entering the fight
Subscribers of The Trends Journal know that Ukrainian officials have been trying to get NATO forces to join the fight against Russia because it has a significantly more lethal military and Kyiv will, ultimately, not be able to defeat Russian forces.
So it is of no surprise that the missile strike in Poland yesterday that killed two was sold by Ukraine and Poland, another rival to Russia, as a blatant Russian attack on a NATO ally, thus the opening shot of WWIII.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called the missile strike a major escalation.
“Hitting NATO territory with missiles. This is a Russian missile attack on collective security. This is a really significant escalation. Action is needed,” he said.

Poland’s foreign ministry tweeted – from its official account – that a “Russia-made missile dropped on the village of Przewodów.”
But, like Ukraine’s effort to join NATO, the West said: Not so fast.
President Joe Biden said late Tuesday that it was unlikely that the missiles were fired by Russia due to their trajectories. Polish President Andrzej Duda said, “We have no evidence at the moment that it was a rocket launched by Russian forces. However, there are many indications that it was a missile that was used by Ukraine’s antimissile defense.”

We are having this conversation because of Russia’s unjust and — and its barbaric assault on Ukrainian territorial integrity and sovereignty. And specifically, we’re having today’s conversation because Russia launched a barrage of missiles on Ukraine specifically targeted towards civilian and energy infrastructure. And so, like I said, we’re continuing to engage with our Polish partners and our allies in the region, but again, we’ve not seen anything to contradict what President Duda had been saying.
Unlike Ukraine, Poland is a full member of NATO. One of the key benefits of NATO membership is the protection under Article 5, which states that any member state that
Article 5 provides that if a NATO Ally is the victim of an armed attack, every other member of the Alliance would consider it as an attack on all members and will take the actions it deems necessary to assist the ally attacked.
Shouldn’t the mainstream media at least mention the risks that come with Kyiv either willfully lying or spreading unconfirmed reports to spark a larger conflict?
Dmitry Medvedev, the deputy chair of the Security Council of the Russian Federation, tweeted that the incident with the “Ukrainian-alleged ‘missile strike’ on a Polish farm proves just one thing: waging a hybrid war against Russia, the West moves closer to the world war.”
