an unmanned drone harmlessly crashing into a field isn’t going to kick off world war 3… at least I sure hope not.
While this is not worthy of ww3, defending nato member space is something nato can and should do. Whether the strike is intended or not, nato is legitimate to defend the area to prevent a strike. More than legitimate in fact.
I’m sure NATO has already attended to the scene to defend against a small pile of debris scattered in a field.
Since we’re providing missiles to Ukraine, a whole bunch of NATO missiles are landing in Crimea, I’m sure. I’d prefer if the war ended, personally, with a fully independent Ukraine.
Sorry for not wanting a massive death toll over something that literally doesn’t matter at all. If Russia intentionally hit some Romanian village with an attack, then a response would be justified. Some random trash accidentally crashing near the border doesn’t matter.
That doesn’t make me a russian troll, it just makes me a relatively sensible person.
WW3? the world against Russia?
More than half the world is in support of Russia, mostly because they do not support the USA proxy war or NATO. If by "the whole world" you mean NATO, then not even that considering the support isn't unanimous. The remainder is indifferent, don't really care one way or the other.
NK will be their Japan, while Africa becomes a mishmash (again), China plays as a USSR type and Greece can be the new Italy.
I guess Hungary is candidate for newItaly 🤔
Lmao more like the Alabama National Air Guard against Russia. The Coast Guard could dust their navy at this point.
