Ukraine War: 'NATO doesn't want escalation,' says Latvian President

Latvian President Egils Levits told Sky's Mark Austin that "NATO doesn't want escalation of the war", following what the Polish President described as an "unfortunate incident" in which two people were killed in a missile strike in a village just within his country's border.

Andrzej Duda tweeted that officials had "no proof at the moment that it was a missile fired by the Russian side".

Might be they don't want escalation but Zelensky certainly does

The war doesn’t need to happen at all but tens of millions don’t need to go to war and die over the death of 2 people

My heart goes out to the souls whom have lost they life's in this war in Ukraine and to the two souls whom have lost they life's in Poland and the way forward is not to go into a full scale war with Russia and go in with blazing guns but to think before hand and the way forward is to bring war crimes against those who was responsible for it . To go in guns blazing would be a great loss of life on all corners of the globe. Yes it is check mate for NATO to what action it would take but to trigger article 5 would be far far to dangerous. But I would trigger article 3/4 just in case it was not a mistake ..

but Zelenskyy does want escalation, that's why he lied that it was a Russian missile.

[Ricohere]

it's Ukraine that escalate the War by attacking Poland and killed 2 people there, even US official admit it's Ukraine missile, where is NATO Article 5 now? try making excuse against your own article?

Zelensky was faster than any missile trying to Escalate the Conflict into World War 3. Even though he already knew that it was Ukraine Missiles. Not his first attempt. First it was Shelling Nuclear Reactor and then Attacking the Dam. He is a Liability backed up by NATO and the West. The biggest danger to the World Peace are a combination of these 3. Billions of lives at risk in the hands of a Comedian and his side kicks in NATO and the West.

Someone should tell this to zelenski then. He can't wait to pull Nato into this war for his own gain

Mind Begs the Question:
If deploying Weapons, Mercenaries
At USA doorstep (Cuba)- Not Allowed
At Russias doorstep (Ukraine)- Allowed
Democracy, Imperialism?

[deanadams]

I don't want war, but I am prepared to die to protect my family.

[elguapo]

But the illegal invasion of Iraq could be tolerated??

[oomz]

Friendly fire 😆
Zelensky trying hard to escalate, but doesn't realise nobody else does.

[tommyback]

If they do not want escalation why do hard rhetoric?

[jpmugishapps]

I'm guessing he's decided to take responsibility along with the rest. 😔

[olamideogundipe]

An appropriate cursory look at the disheartening situation facing our world and deserving opinion of best stance to take.!

[svetlanak]

It is too far for missiles to reach Poland but hey, who is going to say Ukraine. Lately, people say what they think and then had to correct themselves. My heart goes to families of all those who killed in this political game.

[gerhardheydrich]

But as Ukraine (a non-NATO member) has attacked Poland (a NATO member) surely NATO should defend now Poland against Ukrainian aggression? Or is it OK for Ukraine to play these stupid 'false-flag' games?
