  1. Wake the fuck up and shoot these drones down, We are seen as weak by Putin by not doing it!

  2. My god, at least we should put some AA systems on the fucking border, I’m disgusted by the lack of action from Romania side

  3. Man why not take the drones down preemptive? If it is near our borders? Whats putin gonna do about that?

  4. We do not need to strike Russia, use article 5 or anything like that. No fly zone over Ukraine – that would be a solution to a lot of problems. Russian drones and missiles are not accurate, not only do they not hit their intended kindergartens and hospitals (obviously), but they are a threat to neighbouring countries. Their AA is a threat to civil aviation (now proven twice). So what’s there to think about?

  5. More do-nothing NATO. Yawn. Wake me up if they actually do something.

  6. Accidental, or on purpose? Either way, NATO doing something active will just play in to Putin’s hands at the moment. Nothing will help Putin more than NATO getting involved in a half-hearted way, esp. with Trump’s imminent investiture.

  7. Now, now boys. You know pootin is allowed to do what he wants, don’t forget your place in the pecking order.

  8. Can NATO please finally install long range air defense on its borders with Ukraine? There’s a threat for member states. Ukraine sure would welcome Patriots or other systems helping protect the first 100 miles of Ukrainian air space and these Russian provocations would be ended for good.

  9. what got hit in Romania?

    btw, can we ban the UK tabloids, especially shite like The Sun, Express, Daily Mail and The Mirror?

    the account /u/daily_mirror is just a blatant click generator for a paper none of us need to read. our generation can just use social media to see the sauce.

  10. Not just scrambled, but even used their **firm message of condemnation**!
    Isn’t that too much escalation?

  11. NATO should finally keep Ukrainian airspace clean.. every missile that flies towards NATO states is a potential threat and must be intercepted early enough!

  12. Before everyone goes apeshit crazy, I’ve seen no other sources claiming Romania got ‘hit’.
    Other sources say that drones entered Romanian airspace. Major difference.

    Is the fact that we as a collective don’t shoot down hostile intruders weak, in my opinion, yes. But don’t go throwing around article 5 on this, guys…

  13. Finish them off and give Ukraine the satisfaction of painting the Kremlin blue n yellow.

  14. what does scrambled mean when mirror says it in this context

  15. We shouldn’t be allowing a russian bee to cross into NATO airspace.
    Shoot everything down.

  16. What a week! Russia targeted the UK PM and bombed Romania, yet still the West is thinking there’s a peace to keep. Totally delusional.

  17. The proportionate response to this is placing NATO forces with air defense on all borders with Ukraine. Then shooting down any drone that enters Ukrainian airspace that is also within 100km of the border.

    NATO is not protecting Ukraine; they are protecting themselves with the authorization of Ukraine. It is impossible for NATO to know if a drone or missile is targeting Ukraine or NATO if it enters the threat envelope.

    It offers plausible deniability and is a proportionate response to the provocation that has plausible deniability of being a mistake.

  18. Give him an inch. And Trump will let him take a mile.
