"Trump expresses concern over Russian fighter jet infiltration in Estonia - a potential cause for worry"

In a concerning development, Estonia's government reported the entry of three Russian jets into its airspace on Friday. The Russian aircraft allegedly remained in Estonian airspace without permission for 12 minutes, marking the third such incident in the last two weeks.

This latest incident follows similar episodes in Poland and Romania, where Russian drones invaded the airspace of these countries without permission, for an unspecified duration. The incidents are potential breaches of international airspace rules.

The Polish Air Force intervened in the incident involving Polish airspace, while Italian F-35 jets participated in a Baltic surveillance mission and intercepted the Russian jets over Estonian airspace. The Italian jets, with Italian nationality, responded to the breaches of international airspace rules.

The U.S. President, Donald Trump, has expressed displeasure about the incident involving Russian drones over Estonia's airspace. In a statement, he said, 'This could potentially be a 'big problem'.' However, it appears that Trump does not have all the information about the Russian drones over Estonia's airspace.

The Russian jets' actions may escalate tensions between Russia and its neighboring NATO countries. A NATO official, speaking anonymously and cited by international agencies, stated that the Italian F-35 jets' intervention was a response to the breaches of international airspace rules.

This series of incidents raises questions about Russia's intentions and adherence to international norms. As the situation continues to develop, it is crucial for all parties involved to prioritise diplomacy and dialogue to ensure peace and stability in the region.
