Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia are NATO states. ALL THREE have had Ukrainian drones blow their **** up in the last few months. It wasn't intentional. **** happens in AND NEAR war zones.
Trump is not "defending" those nations from Coupkraine.
And he's not going to "defend" Romainia against Russia.
The very LAST thing Trump wants is to push Russia even CLOSER to China than he already has. He knows when to take the **** L and make the right moves to salvage what he can. That's a major reason he dropped the sanctions regime and let Russia move its oil. It was not ONLY about the global supply. It was about throwing Putin a bone. He values that relationship because he does not want Russia to draw closer to China.
He's a bit tied up right now. Jacking himself over a drone that is ALLEGEDLY of Russian origin going off course is not at the top of his play list. ESPECAILLY with Coupkrainian drones doing the same thing in 3 different NATO countries in the past few months.
Here's AI on the Coupkrainian drone incursion in Latvia:
Political Fallout: The drone incursion caused the collapse of the ruling coalition and the resignation of Defense Minister Andris Sprūds and Prime Minister Evika Siliņa. A new four-party coalition was formed under Prime Minister Edgars Rinkēvičs, appointing Colonel Raivis Melnis as the new Defense Minister.
Reactions and Tensions: Latvian officials initially did not shoot down the drones to avoid risking civilian infrastructure. The incident highlighted vulnerabilities in NATO's regional readiness and prompted Latvia and Lithuania to jointly appeal to NATO to strengthen anti-drone defenses.
Broader Context: Since March, similar incidents have occurred, with misguided Ukrainian drones occasionally breaching the airspace of Estonia and Lithuania—often due to northern Russian electronic jamming diverting them off course.
