    Then you allow Putin to play his incrimental game. Asysemtric is his bread and butter, I almost think not invoking the article yet plays to his strengths. Im not gonna claim invoking it now is the correct move but the rest of what I said remains true weather it’s right or wrong to respond now.

      If Putin wanted to invade Romania, he wouldn’t send just a single drone. This is more likely a false flag than an actual attempt at conquering Romania.

        Not sure what you mean by false flag in this context, but the drone was identified as Russian and Romania most definitely did not attack itself

        Could, be false flag, or russia testing the waters or truly a wayward drone. Whichever was the original cause, russia will gauge the reaction to see how much they can attack “Nato” targets and get away with it. If they find that drone strikes they can cast doubt into its orgins will go unpunished, there will be alot of “wayward” drones in Europe.

          It’s not false flag. Don’t feel obligated to legitimize this dude’s baseless speculation just for the sake of debate.

          They are here already and have been for some time, it keeps being all over the news.
          Though they don’t appear to carry explosive payloads… yet.

          I’m so confused by all 4 of the comments in this thread having poor English, grammar and syntax. I completely get that English isn’t everyone’s 1st language, but very similar errors from four different users in a single comment chain about international affairs just seems kinda sus to me

            It’s still the case that users from the US dominate most online spaces, so illiteracy is to be expected. I wouldn’t consider it suspicious on its own.

            Which similar errors did you notice? I didn’t see anything specific, but I’m curious

            This space has a larger proportion of non-americans than older social media sites, if that helps explain anything

              The similarities are that they’re generic errors, nothing specific. Extra spaces, missing apostrophes, incorrect homophones being used, inappropriate comma usage, missing capitalization. It just seems off in a consistent but subtle way

            Well, I for one learned english from reading comics and grammer from a “how to grammer for dummies”, so english is my first and only language but I know im bad at it. I learned if the person reading can correct it, it means they understood the meaning enough. Sorry for bad english.

            I suck at spelling and grammar becsuse I moved to a different continent when I was young and started on a very different school curriculum, even just yesterday I told my mom it was right not to push me ahead a year when they didn’t know where to put me because I still feel like I missed stuff.
