Latvia calls for a response to Russia: Rinkevics on provocations in the airspace.

The President of Latvia commented on the violation of Estonia's airspace by Russian airplanes

According to inkorr.com: The President of Latvia, Edgars Rinkevics, expressed his views on the violation of Estonia's airspace by Russian fighter jets. He emphasized that such actions by Russia only confirm the need to strengthen NATO measures and European sanctions.

According to Rinkevics, the intrusion of Russian drones into Polish territory and the violation of Estonia's airspace by Russian fighter jets are new manifestations of hybrid warfare. The President of Latvia believes that Russia seeks to test NATO's reaction to its actions.

'No one wants to start a new war, but a response to Russia's actions is necessary. Finding the right answer is difficult, but this process is ongoing. The more Russia provokes NATO, the higher the risk of conflict. Russia plays on the edge but tries not to cross that line. However, knowing Russia, this may happen, and the Kremlin bears responsibility.'

Rinkevics emphasized that Russia will stop its provocations only after receiving a worthy response and urged allies to remember this. He believes that tough times require responsibility and resilience. However, he is confident that together it is possible to overcome these challenges.
