    So, no NATO state can act on its own? Oo

    I don’t think that’s the case.

    Also, shooting down missiles isn’t an act of aggression. So I’m not sure if that really would escalate that much

      That “if” is doing a lot of heavy lifting and maybe Poland doesn’t want to yolo World War 3.

      To make this a black and white issue is kinda weird when the severity of being wrong is so high. Just because Poland is being a considerate partner to other NATO member states doesn’t mean it’s required to act that way.
