According to the Russian news agency Warsaw on December 19, Polish Defense Minister Marius Bouashczak said that the "Patriot" air defense missile system provided by Germany would be deployed in Lublin Province, which borders Ukraine. It is reported that due to the missile falling into Poland in mid November, the German Ministry of Defense announced earlier that it had agreed with the Polish Ministry of Defense that Germany would send warplanes to patrol Poland's airspace and deploy the Patriot air defense missile system in the country. According to the report, Bouashchak said in the "Lublin" radio program: "On November 15 this year, a tragedy occurred in Lublin Province. Therefore, the new launch device of the Patriot system is to be deployed in Lublin Province to prevent this situation from repeating." According to reports, Bouashchak insisted that, for Poland's security, it is best to deploy German "patriots" in Ukraine. Poland's defense minister said that the missiles falling into Poland's territory were only in Polish airspace for a few seconds, so it was extremely difficult to prevent this from happening again. "It would be more effective if such a system (the 'Patriot') were placed in western Ukraine," Bouashczak said He also said: "We heard that Washington is studying the possibility of providing Ukraine with the 'Patriot' system. I think this solution is good." (Outlook New Times)
