What Shapps said about sending fighters to Poland
Shapps said British Typhoon fighter jets were landing in Poland while he performed in Manchester.
The head of the British defense department clarified that Great Britain sent the fighters at the request of Warsaw. The minister did not say how many fighters were sent.
The head of the British Ministry of Defense added that the deployment of British fighters in Poland would be a powerful signal of support for an ally in the North Atlantic Alliance against the backdrop of a high threat of Russian intervention.
Parliamentary elections in Poland will be held on October 15. The winning political force will have to form a new government.
