President Donald Trump said on Sunday that the US will defend Poland and the Baltic countries in the event of a Russian escalation, after the latest Russian violation of Estonian airspace.
When asked if the US would help EU countries if Russia increases hostilities, Trump replied:
Yes, I would.
On Friday, Estonia's airspace was violated by Russia when combat aircraft of the type Mig-31 were in Estonian airspace for twelve minutes. The Russian intrusion occurred after it was reported that over 20 Russian drones had violated Poland's airspace earlier in September and were shot down by NATO planes.
