Amid Russian Espionage Fears, Poland Sets Exclusion Zone Around Swinoujscie LNG Terminal

Poland's first liquefied natural gas terminal in the Baltic port of Swinoujscie

Poland will introduce a temporary 200-meter (656 feet) exclusion zone around its Swinoujscie Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) terminal starting on April 13, the interior minister said, citing concerns about Russian espionage. The exclusion zone for members of the public will not affect the terminal's operations, Poland's gas pipeline operator said of the plant located on the Baltic coast. A staunch ally of Ukraine and a hub for deliveries of weapons to Kyiv's armed forces, Poland says it has regularly found itself the target of Russian efforts to destabilize the country.
