Putin learned that he can cross NATO red lines with impunity – The Telegraph

A massive incursion of russian drones into Polish airspace for the first time forced NATO forces to engage in direct combat with russia. The drones destroyed Polish and allied fighters, but the Alliance decided not to consider the incident an attack.

According to The Telegraph, in this way vladimir putin checked NATO’s readiness for escalation and received a signal that the alliance would not proceed to Art. 5 of the Treaty. This, according to journalists, gives him an idea of ​​how far one can go without the risk of full-scale war.

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said that the West and russia were “closer to conflict than at any time since World War II” and called an emergency meeting of the allies under Art. 4.

Despite this, NATO stressed that the situation is under control: “Everything went as it should. We reacted quickly and decisively,” the publication’s source noted.

Journalists believe that the drone attack could be a test not only for Europe, but also for US President Donald Trump, from whom they expect a tougher stance on the kremlin.

As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, the Operational Command of the Polish Armed Forces confirmed the violation of the country’s airspace during russia’s night attack on Ukraine.

Debris from one of the drones that attacked Poland fell on a residential building in the village of Wyryki, Lublin Voivodeship.

Zelenskyy called the russian drones in Poland an extremely dangerous precedent for Europe.

Meanwhile, in early July, 4G modems with Polish and Lithuanian SIM cards were found in the debris of russian drones shot down in Ukraine, which indicates that the kremlin is preparing to fly over neighboring countries.
