If missiles hitting European homes aren’t a reason,
then neither is an invading army.

But don’t worry — we must avoid “escalation.”

Big takeaway: #Sikorski is pressing #Berlin to lead.
If #Germany backed even a limited no-fly zone over western Ukraine, it could set a precedent for #NATO’s role in the war.

On #Germany:
👉 Praises recent defense policy shifts.
👉 Warns: “We lost two years of Russian aggression — much talk, little action. Now Putin is testing our patience. We must not waste more time.”

He also urged 🇩🇪Germany & NATO to set up a North Sea control zone against Russia’s “shadow fleet” of old oil tankers sneaking out of the Baltic.
⚠️ Environmental risk = huge. Deepwater Horizon cleanup cost $82B. Two Russian ships already leaked fuel.

#Sikorski:
👉 “#Ukraine is far ahead in drone defense. They fight hundreds daily. We must learn from them.”
👉 #NATO/#EU can enforce a no-fly zone. Poland cannot do it alone.
👉 “If #Ukraine asked us to shoot down drones, it would be in our interest.”

Political competition will increasingly elevate those who are prepared to confront this threat effectively.

A solution will be neither simple nor free of conflict, and retreat or avoidance will not be sustainable in the long run.
What is required are political actors who act decisively and strategically, rather than relying on vague rhetoric.

Russian policy is characterized by power ambitions, disinformation, and the use of violence. A fundamental change in this behavior is unlikely in the foreseeable future. As a result, dealing with Russia will become one of the central political challenges of the coming decades.

"This week, 8,000 soldiers from both countries have been killed. More from #russia, but when you're the aggressor, you usually lose more," Trump commented on the losses on both sides.
