Sikorski Confronts Lavrov at UN: ‘Enough Is Enough’
Sikorski said Russia is losing the war and warned that its tactics are spreading across Europe, citing attacks, sabotage and US charges.
- On Wednesday, Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski confronted Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov at the United Nations Security Council, rejecting Kremlin claims regarding Ukraine.
- Lavrov described the 2014 removal of Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych as a "bloody coup," but Sikorski, present in Kyiv during the revolution, countered that Yanukovych was voted out by parliament, including his own Party of Regions.
- Sikorski argued Russia has failed to conquer Donbas for over 12 years and Kyiv for over four, contrasting this military stalemate with Europe's GDP being ten times bigger and NATO's twenty-five times larger than Russia's.
- Addressing Lavrov directly, Sikorski urged him to tell Russian President Vladimir Putin that "enough is enough," warning that while Russia retains the capacity to kill, it cannot win the war.
- Beyond Ukraine's borders, Sikorski warned that Russian-linked sabotage and covert operations now threaten Europe, citing a drone strike near Poland on September 13 and an armed drone planted at Leipzig Airport.
