"I am discussing a meeting with world leaders about the loss of life in Eastern Poland and the United States' commitment to support the Polish investigation," Joe Biden wrote on his Twitter account, Wednesday (16/11) morning.
The meeting resulted in them being late in following the agenda of the second day of the G20 Summit for mangrove planting in Tahura Mangrove.
Biden said NATO leaders and G7 members would carry out further investigations of Russian missile attacks on Poland. According to Biden, it is unlikely that the missile was fired from Russia.
"There is initial information that denies this, but we'll see," Joe Biden told reporters in Bali on the sidelines of the G20 Summit.
The missile hit a Polish wheat facility in Przewodow, eastern Poland, which is about 6 km from the Ukrainian border at 3:40 p.m. local time. As Reuters reported, the attack came to light when Russia attacked energy facilities in Ukraine that resulted in blackouts, and even a reported blackout to Moldova.
As a result of this attack, two people were reported killed, "wrote Reuters.
Poland's National Security Council (BNN) is still investigating the origin of the missile. So far, according to Duda, Poland has no clear evidence to suggest the shooter of the missile,
The Associated Press cited preliminary allegations that the missile came from Ukraine which was accidentally fired to fend off Russian attacks.
The Russian Ministry of Defense, as reported by Tass, denied and considered it a provocation. Russian troops did not carry out attacks on targets close to the Ukrainian-Poland border. Russian military agencies show photos of debris published from the scene of the incident had nothing in common with Russian weapons.
"As the ministry emphasizes, fragment photos posted by Polish media from the scene have nothing to do with Russian weapons," wroteTass.Wednesday (16/11).
Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev considers Western provocations could trigger a Third World War by fomenting a hybrid war in Russia.
Hybrid war is a military strategy theory that combines political war, cyber war, and conventional war, as well as other methods that influence such as fake news warfare, diplomacy, lawfare, and intervention.
"Insidents with alleged Ukrainian missile attacks on a Polish farm prove only one thing: to wage a hybrid war against Russia, the West moves closer to world war," he wrote on Twitter on Wednesday (16/11).
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan also agreed to immediately investigate the missile incident. He asked all parties to respect the statement of attitude from Moscow first while waiting for the results of the investigation. There could be a technical error on the ground or something else.
"I have to respect the Russian position which says it's not the missile. This is important to us," Erdogan told reporters on the sidelines of the G20 summit in Bali, Wednesday (16/11).
We are trying to get Russia and Ukraine to the negotiating table as soon as possible. In this case, we believe the provocation method is not the right way. The path to peace lies through dialogue," Erdogan asserted.
Russia is indeed in the main spotlight at the G20 Summit in Bali Indonesia. Members expect Russian President Vladimir Putin to be the one present, but Putin appoints Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov who represents him.
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak satirized that the man who was responsible for so much bloodshed in Ukraine and economic disputes around the world would not be present to confront his colleagues.
"He (Putin) will not even try to explain his actions. On the other hand, he will stay at home and we will all continue the existing tasks," said Sunak in his official statement in Gov.uk, Monday (14/11).
The provocation continues for Lavrov. Arriving in Bali, the world's mainstream media reported that Lavrov was sick and had to receive treatment.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova denied the news. He posted a Lavrov video, looking healthy in a T-shirt and shorts.
They have written about our president for 10 years that he fell ill. This is a game that is nothing new in politics, Lavrov said in the video.

Russia's state news agencyTass separately quoted Lavrov as saying, "I'm at the hotel reading the material for tomorrow's summit."
Russia is increasingly being cornered in the dialogue on the first day of the G20 Summit. The majority of members urged Russia to stop its military action against Ukraine. Because, it has had a very bad impact on countries around the world to cause crises, both food, energy and finance.
"The best and fastest way to solve this problem is to withdraw Putin from Ukraine," Sunak said.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, who had the opportunity to speak virtually at the G20 summit, asked for support from the G19 (19 G20 members without including Russia in it) to stop the war.
"I believe now is the time for Russia's destructive war to be and can be stopped. This will save thousands of lives," Zelensky said, Tuesday (15/11).
Then, on Tuesday (15/11) night, after completing the agenda for the first day of the G20 Summit, Lavrov rushed to leave Bali, along with news of a Russian missile attack on Poland. His position at the G20 summit was replaced by Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov.
"Lavrov left Bali at the end of the first day of the G20 Summit," said a source ofRIA Novosti, as reported by AFP.
