"I want to be very clear. We will make a decision to shoot down flying objects without discussion when they violate our territory and fly over Poland. There is no room for debate here."
"This morning, 3 Russian Mig-31 fighter jets entered Estonian airspace. NATO fighters responded and the Russian planes were forced to flee. Such violation is totally unacceptable. The Government of Estonia has decided to request NATO Article 4 consultations."
"Russia has violated Estonian airspace four times already this year, which in itself is unacceptable, but today's violation, during which three fighter jets entered our airspace, is unprecedentedly brutal. Russia's increasing border testing and aggression must be met with rapid reinforcement of political and economic pressure."
Poland will shoot down flying objects that violate its airspace, including Russian fighter jets, according to Prime Minister Donald Tusk. Decisions to shoot down violating aircraft will be made without discussion and no debate is acceptable. Tusk seeks "100% certainty" that NATO allies will also engage jets violating allied airspace and warned the conflict is entering a very acute phase. Recent incidents include drones and unmanned aerial objects entering Polish airspace, with NATO shooting down some of them. Estonia reported three MiG-31 fighters crossing its airspace for almost 12 minutes and has requested NATO Article 4 consultations. Estonian officials called the violations unacceptable and urged stronger political and economic pressure on Russia.
