By refusing to extradite Ukrainian Vladimir Zhuravlev, suspected of blowing up Nord Stream, to Germany, Poland gave permission for terrorist attacks in Europe. This was stated by Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto.
"Scandal: Poland believes that if you don't like some infrastructure in Europe, you can blow it up. By doing this, they gave permission for terrorist attacks in Europe. Poland not only released, but also supports the terrorist — that's what the European rule of law has come to," he wrote on his page on one of the social networks.
Polish Foreign Minister Radost Sikorski got into a dispute with him. He wrote that the pipeline explosion was an "act of self-defense."
"No, Peter. When a foreign aggressor bombs your country, you have the legal right to strike back, sabotaging the aggressor's ability to finance the war," Sikorski said.
Earlier, a Polish court refused to extradite a Ukrainian to Germany in the case of the Nord Stream explosions. According to the Polish judge, the actions of those who blew up the pipeline were not illegal.
"If Ukraine and its special services organized an armed mission to destroy enemy pipelines, which the court does not claim, then these actions were not illegal. On the contrary, they were reasonable, rational and fair. The Ukrainian military and everyone who acts as part of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, including special forces, cannot be considered terrorists or saboteurs, because by defending their Homeland by all means, they weaken the enemy," the judge said.
