For Washington the missile shield is primarily intended to protect the United States from possible attacks by so-called “rogue states” notably Iran.

I am requesting to be made a citizen of Poland the noble country of Karol Wojtyla" the letter says using the late pope’s birth name. Agca calls himself the messiah in the letter. His lawyer said he had handed legal documents over to the Polish consulate in Istanbul related to the request. Polish foreign ministry spokesman Piotr Paszkowski said earlier this month the decision would rest with the president. He said Agca’s request would come up against several legal hurdles… Polish foreign ministry spokesman Piotr Paszkowski said earlier this month the decision would rest with the president. He said Agca’s request would come up against several legal hurdles. "To gain Polish citizenship one must have lived in Poland for at least five years" he said. Wojtyla became Pope John Paul II in 1978 and died in 2005. Agca shot the pope in 1981 in St Peter’s Square and nearly killed him. Meeting with him in his prison cell in 1983 Pope John Paul II forgave Agca for the failed assassination attempt. After having spent 19 years in an Italian prison the one-time ultra-nationalist Turkish militant was turned over to Turkish authorities in 2000 to serve time for other crimes.
