How did Andreyev react?
Jabłoński stressed on Thursday that a strong protest from the Polish side was presented at the meeting and a call for Russia to stop such provocative activities.
These kinds of incidents should absolutely not happen and if they continue they will be met with a strong response
Jablonski said.
When asked about Andreyev’s reaction, he replied that when summoned to the State Department, his response was usually “an absolute rejection of our position”.
He is acting on behalf of the Kremlin
– added.
Usually in this kind of situation the Russian ambassador takes a very defensive position, rejecting what we tell him, but of course accepting what we tell him, in accordance with the Vienna Convention
– added. However, he noted that there is no real dialogue.
Persona non grata
When Jabłoński was asked whether it is worth considering Andreev as persona non grata, he replied that no such decision had been made. He added that “due to the fact that he is the Russian ambassador to Poland, we can to some extent take actions such as his subpoena in a situation where it is necessary.”
We also have a Polish ambassador in Moscow, which also gives us opportunities, at least in the context of the security of Polish citizens living or residing in Russia
he noticed.
Incident involving the Polish Border Guard aircraft
On Friday there was an incident over the Black Sea involving an SG aircraft participating in a Frontex mission. The Polish Turbolet L-410 aircraft was approached three times by a Russian fighter performing aggressive and dangerous maneuvers.
