Russia has warned that the new U.S. missile defense base in northern Poland increases the overall nuclear threat. The base, opened on November 13 in Redzikowo, is part of NATO's missile shield. Poland argues that Russia's threats support NATO's defense rationale. Additionally, Russia expressed openness to "realistic" peace initiatives regarding the Ukraine conflict, provided they consider Moscow's interests. The Russian Foreign Ministry stated it is willing to discuss a ceasefire but will not make significant territorial concessions or accept Ukraine's NATO ambitions.
