US Secretary of State Antony Blinken says that Russia bears responsibility for a deadly blast in Poland, where an initial probe pointed to Ukrainian air defenses.
Addressing reporters at an Asia-Pacific summit in Bangkok, Blinken says that he had spoken again with his Ukrainian counterpart on the probe but added: “Whatever its final conclusion, we already know the party ultimately responsible for this tragic incident — Russia.”
