Comprehension Passage

Directions: Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow by choosing the correct/most appropriate options:

Mr. Zelenskyy’s comment was irresponsible. His anger toward Russia is justifiable given that his country is being bombarded on a daily basis, but as the President of Ukraine, what he says will have consequences, and he should wait for the facts and respond cautiously when it comes to NATO-Russia tensions. Russia should understand that Ukraine is now a tinderbox. All stakeholders, primarily Russia which started the war, have the responsibility to put in place the guardrails against escalation. They should turn the diffusion of the Polish crisis into an opportunity for open dialogue. As the U.S. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Mark A. Milley, pointed out, the conflict could enter a frozen stage during winter. Despite Ukraine’s territorial gains, it is unlikely its forces will be able to expel Russians from all captured territories through force, he said, making his case for talks. Mr. Zelenskyy, reportedly under U.S. pressure, changed his earlier position that he would not hold talks with Mr. Putin.

Which of the following, if true, would strengthen the argument made in the above passage?

I: What hit Poland was a Russian-made S300 defense missile, most likely fired by Ukraine against a Russian missile, they said.

II: To overcome its battlefield failures, Russia is now deliberately targeting Ukrainian infrastructure with repeated missile attacks.

III: A misfire could turn the nightmare into reality.
