ending a nearly two-week closure, according to Prime Minister Donald Tusk. The Polish government closed all its border crossings with Belarus on 12 September in response to the large-scale military exercises conducted by the Belarusian and Russian forces, known as Zapad 2025. The war games followed an unprecedented incursion of Russian drones into Polish airspace, putting NATO allies on high alert that Moscow's full-scale invasion of Ukraine could spill over into other countries. "The conclusion of these exercises reduces — although I can't say eliminates — various threats, and taking into account the economic interests of Polish carriers and railways, we concluded that this measure has served its purpose," Tusk told the government on Tuesday.
