A measured response is to now start shooting them down across the borders of Ukraine, belarus, and russia - if they have the potential to pass into EU and NATO countries.
russia has now well and truly established intent, and a strong but measured response is needed.
Aaaahahahahaah, yeah, ok man, I'll believe it when I see it.
These days its more likely that Trump will apologize to Putin, and offer to provide him with more sophisticated Drones that can better avoid NATO defenses -- and that the Americans will strongly oppose any actual military action against their new ally. Has the EU not grasped all the crap he's been doing ??
The EU certainly has, and is using the limited opportunity to purchase as much as possible from US's spare production capacity while the winds are only blowing softly against them and Ukraine.
This is currently needed by Ukraine, and as a condition they know that to speak up against Trump would be the demise of this deal.
The risk is that the EU's own manufacturing capacity is not being expanded rapidly enough, and if the US supply were to be cut off in the near future, they would continue to be caught with their pants down.
I fear it would take a direct attack before EU countries make the big commitments to defence manufacturing that are needed.
