European leaders are doing everything they can to continue the Ukraine-Russia war and to increase U.S. involvement. From Andrew Korybko at korybko.substack.com:
It’s difficult to believe that Russia would so brazenly provoke NATO at the risk of ruining talks with the US and consequently escalating tensions, but that’s what some want Trump to think so that he’ll respond to the three such claims this month thus far in precisely that way.
Western officials are unnerved after Estonia alleged that Russian jets violated its airspace above the Gulf of Finland last week for a total of 12 minutes. They’re convinced that this was a deliberate provocation against NATO that must be responded to otherwise it risks further emboldening Russia. The Lithuanian Defense Minister even hinted that Russian jets should be shot out of the sky next time. Russia retorted that this was a routine flight to Kaliningrad which remained above international waters the entire time.
This allegation follows Poland blaming a Russian drone for the damage that a home incurred during this month’s incursion, which was arguably caused by NATO jamming as explained here, and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen’s spokesperson accusing it of jamming her plane prior to that. Poland later admitted that this penultimate incident was likely caused by a Polish missile, while Western media like Politico rubbished the first one, which were respectively analyzed here and here.
The aforesaid precedents therefore legitimize skepticism of Estonia’s allegation against Russia. Shortly after they were made, Reuters published a report claiming that “Pentagon officials sat down with a group of European diplomats in late August and delivered a stern message: The U.S. planned to cut off some security assistance to Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia, all NATO members bordering Russia.” According to them, some EU diplomats feared this could embolden Russia, which they now believe it did.
GI Zelensky doesn’t want peace like Israel.
No shekels in that.
Russia has the best land based military in the world.
Good luck with that Northern Eurasia partition.
Read that Copenhagen airport is closed due to drone swarm.
Jammers for everyone and wrist worn UAV detector.
The writer blames the red pest comrades and not Northern Eurasia AKA Russia.
