Unlikely Russia fired missile that landed in Poland – Biden
US President Joe Biden has said it is “unlikely” that the missile that hit Poland and killed two people, was fired from Russia.
He says there is “preliminary information that contests” whether the incident in Poland was due to a missile fired from Russia.
“I don’t want to say that until we completely investigate, but it’s unlikely in the minds of the trajectory that it was fired from Russia, but we’ll see.”
Biden says that world leaders will determine the next steps after finding out what happened – following investigations taking place in Poland.
