Trump Urges NATO to Shoot Down Russian Jets

Former President Trump advocated for NATO members to shoot down Russian aircraft violating their airspace, a stance differing from NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte's more cautious approach emphasizing intelligence analysis of intent and threat assessment before engaging. Recent Russian incursions into Polish and Estonian airspace, along with drone sightings disrupting Scandinavian airports, have heightened tensions. While European leaders vowed forceful responses, Rutte affirmed NATO's defensive readiness. Trump, while supporting NATO, offered no commitment to US involvement in shootdowns.
