The Spin


A Russian drone slamming into a Romanian apartment block and injuring civilians is proof that Moscow's war doesn't respect NATO borders. Romania had only four minutes to respond, and its hands were tied by rules preventing fire into Ukrainian airspace — a gap Russia is clearly exploiting. Europe must accelerate anti-drone transfers to frontline allies and keep squeezing Russia until this aggression stops.

Nobody actually knows whose drone hit Romania, and jumping straight to blaming Russia repeats the same pattern seen when Ukrainian drones strayed into Finland, Poland and the Baltics — only for the narrative to quietly collapse later. Romanian authorities blamed Russia without presenting any evidence, and the military didn't even intercept the drone despite tracking it on radar. Demanding an objective examination before assigning blame is the only reasonable standard.
