PoliticsPresidential spokesman says fortifications on Poland’s eastern border are ‘full of holes’

Polish presidential spokesman Rafal Leskiewicz called the East Shield fortifications being built along the borders with Russia and Belarus “full of holes,” describing them as a government PR stunt and saying the air-defense system protects only a narrow part of the sky along the eastern border. The project is estimated to cost 10 billion zlotys and is due for completion in 2028.
