Love the position. Actions will do all the talking.
per article: “My opinion is we have to defend every square centimeter of the territory,” von der Leyen said in an interview with CNN. “That means if there is an intrusion in the airspace, after warning, after being very clear, of course the option of shooting down a fighter jet that is intruding our airspace is on the table.”
Nothing will happen. They won’t even do it if those Russian jets fired a payload on nato territory because they are too afraid of „escalation“.
We will protect NATO territory…. 9th statement after the 14th time that explosives-loaded Russian drones have flown over NATO countries, and damaged (accidentally) homes and businesses.
Yeah yeah. Just do it already.
This is „concepts of a plan“ type certainty
They would shoot any other country’s jets so why are they so special?
It was always on the table.
How about starting to shoot them down, at their bases?
You couldn’t even be like the Turks, even though you’ve got nothing to lose. When America sees Europe in this state, what else can it do? They just play with Europe like a ball.
„Will happen if they intrude in our airspace“ is the verbiage they need.
More likely in the air.
I will only believe this when I see it
On the table? Russian jets have been violating NATO airspace for like 10 years now. They’ve should’ve been shot down like Turkey shot them down.
It isn’t her position to be saying this. There is no EU military, its for individual countries to decide.
“You probe with bayonets: if you find mush, you push. If you find steel, you withdraw”
Vladimir Ilich Lenin
Get back to me when the words „in Ukraine“ appear in the title
Just push the Russian jets through a window. No need for missiles etc.
Does anyone still care what she says? All she does is talking without any backing actions.
She will shoot the jets with strongly worded letters?
Turkey did it a while back. That got the Russians attention.
Do they want to be the side of endless threats, or the side of decisive action?
