Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk accused Russia on Wednesday of planning acts of sabotage worldwide that included “acts of air terror” against airlines. Tusk spoke at a news conference in Warsaw alongside Ukrainian President Volodymr Zelenskyy.

I can only confirm that Russia planned acts of air terror, not just against Poland but against airlines across the globe,” said Poland’s prime minister, Donald Tusk.

Most recently, Russia was accused of shooting down an Azerbaijani passenger jet that crashed in Kazakhstan, killing 38 people. The incident echoed the downing of the MH17 plane in 2014 over eastern Ukraine in territory controlled by Russian-backed separatists, which killed 298 people.

The Kremlin said on Thursday that an allegation by Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk that Russia had planned "acts of terrorism" in the air against Poland and other countries was completely unsubstantiated.

WARSAW – Russia planned "acts of terror" against aircraft in Poland and elsewhere, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said on Wednesday. "The latest information can confirm the validity of fears that Russia was planning acts of terrorism in the air not only against Poland," Tusk told reporters in Warsaw.

According to Meduza, Peskov accused Poland of being “well-known for such baseless accusations.” “Often, it even tries to maintain leadership in this field compared to other European countries,” Peskov said.
