Nasa Dua (Indonesia). US President Joe Biden has called an emergency meeting of G7 and NATO leaders in Indonesia on Wednesday morning. In which the member countries of NATO will discuss the case of the death of two people in the fall of a Russian-made missile in Poland. It is being told that after receiving the news of the missile explosion, US President Biden was woken up in the night by his staff and told this news. After this, Biden met Polish President Andrzej Duda and expressed his deep condolences for the loss of life and property.
US President Biden promised him the full support of America. The US President reaffirmed the firm commitment of the US to the NATO organization while pledging US support and assistance to Poland in its investigation of the matter. G7 leaders have agreed on an emergency meeting after the missile fall in Poland. Joe Biden said that ‘I spoke to the President of Poland Andrzej Duda to express my deepest condolences for the loss of life in eastern Poland and offered my full support for the investigation of the explosion by Poland. As it progresses, we will be in close contact to decide the next steps. However, Polish President Duda has said that there is no concrete evidence as to who fired the rocket that fell in the eastern part of the country. Now experts from America will also be involved in the investigation of this incident.

On the other hand, in a statement of the Polish Foreign Ministry, it has been said that the fallen missile has been made in Russia. While Poland’s President Duda was more cautious in his statement about it. He said that the authorities did not know for sure who fired it or where it was made. He said that probably the most apprehension is that it was a missile made in Russia. But it is still to be confirmed. If confirmed, this would be the first time since the Ukraine attack that a Russian weapon has fallen on a NATO country. Significantly, the foundation of the NATO alliance is the principle that an attack against one member is an attack on all of them.
