Tusk demanded information from Zelensky about the participants in the sabotage in Poland

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk held a telephone conversation with Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky, during which he demanded to provide him with information about Ukrainian citizens involved in sabotage on Polish territory. The politician announced this on November 19 during the conference "Science for Business" in Warsaw.

"I told President Zelensky that Poland expects the immediate transfer of all possible data that will help us identify possible threats from possible cooperation between Russian special services and some citizens of Ukraine," the Polish Prime Minister said. The broadcast of the speech was conducted by TVP Info channel.

Shortly before that, the Polish police announced the arrest of several people suspected of blowing up the Warsaw–Lublin railway line leading to Ukraine. The specific number of detainees, as well as their nationalities, were not specified.

Nationalist sentiments are growing in the country

On November 17, Tusk said that damage to the railway track was discovered in the northeast of the country on the section connecting Warsaw with Ukraine. According to him, an act of sabotage could have taken place. Later, it was reported about the second damage on the railway in the country in a day. During it, a circuit was thrown over the power line, which caused a short circuit. As a result, the damaged contact network fell on a passing train with 475 passengers.

Then the Minister of National Defense of Poland, Vladislav Kosinyak-Kamysh, accused Russia of undermining the railway tracks. After that, Tusk clarified that Ukrainian attackers who collaborated with Russia were to blame for the explosion. NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, during a press conference in Brussels at the same time, suggested waiting for the investigation into the causes of the explosion on the railway route to be completed. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov commented on November 18 that Moscow would consider it "strange" if Russia's accusations of sabotage on railway tracks in Poland were absent.
