Sikorski described the actions as “state terrorism,” citing incidents including drones violating Polish airspace on 9–10 September and sabotage on the Warsaw–Dorohusk railway line in November, which disrupted trains carrying hundreds of passengers.
“Russia is currently breaking all fundamental OSCE rules,” Sikorski said, criticising the organisation’s unanimous decision-making process, which allows Moscow to exercise veto powers and leaves the OSCE “paralysed.”
Poland’s top diplomat added that while the OSCE previously monitored ceasefires in Donbas, rebuilding such capabilities today would be “a major organisational challenge.”
Sikorski also discussed Poland’s ongoing bid to participate in the G20 summit in Florida, emphasising that the invitation currently covers the summit and working groups only, with full membership requiring unanimous approval from existing members.
“We are working on it. I spoke today with the UK deputy foreign minister, as they hold the next presidency,” he said.
The OSCE comprises 57 states across Europe and Central Asia and works to promote security and cooperation across political-military, economic-environmental, and human dimensions, including human rights and democracy.
