NATO's construction of "drone wall" completely angers Russia, Russia responds tough

On September 27th, at the United Nations headquarters in new york, Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov spoke at the general debate of the 80th United Nations General Assembly. Xinhua News Agency

According to the news agency, several EU countries, as well as representatives of NATO and Ukraine recently met to agree to build a "drone wall" on the border of the EU with Ukraine and Russia.

Russia responded strongly, saying that "Europe has never been so close to World War III" and that Russia will "resolutely respond" to its aggression against Russia.

Experts interpret that the confrontation between Russia and Europe over the drone incident continues to escalate, triggering external concerns about the confrontation between NATO European countries and Russia, resulting inRussia-Ukraine conflictFurther spillover concerns, coupled with the recent repetition of the Trump administration's position in the United States, make it difficult for the situation between Russia and Ukraine to shift from "conflict" to "mediation" in the short term.

What is Europe's consideration

The Danish Ministry of National Defense said on the 27th that drones were found near many defense facilities in Denmark from the night of 26th to 27th. NATO issued a statement saying that in response to the drone "invasion" of Denmark, it will strengthen its military presence in the Baltic Sea region. German officials said on the same day that drone activities have increased in some parts of Germany, and Germany will take defensive measures.

In response to the continuing fermentation of drone incidents, EU senior defense official Kubilius held a video meeting with EU defense ministers such as Poland, Denmark, Bulgaria, Lithuania and representatives of Ukraine and NATO on 26th, and agreed to build a "drone wall" at the EU border with Ukraine and Russia.

Kubilius said the ¡°drone wall¡± will have advanced reconnaissance, tracking and interception capabilities and, as part of the EU¡¯s Eastern Wing monitoring mechanism, a ¡°conceptual and technical roadmap¡± will then be defined.

According to a report by Xinhua News Agency citing the "Politico ¡¤ European Edition" website, the EU's idea of building a "drone wall" was first proposed in 2024. This idea was further developed after Poland was "invaded" by a large number of drones this month.

European media pointed out that the drone incident further highlights a major "fatal weakness" of the EU and NATO defense system, namely, in the face of the growing low-cost and high-mobility drone warfare in Russia and Ukraine, the existing European air defense system is costly and inefficient.

Some analysts believe that the deterrent effect of the ¡°drone wall¡± is limited, and now more important should be to strengthen coordination at the strategic level of Europe and NATO. Russian Academy of Sciences researcher Dmitry Stefanovich said that Europe needs to spend a lot of time discussing how to deploy radar, who funds, who is responsible, and the ¡°drone wall¡± may be difficult to build in a short time.

¡°Russia will respond resolutely.

Russia has repeatedly denied allegations from the EU and NATO about the drone incidents, while warning that the "drone wall" program will exacerbate regional tensions, and Russia will "resolutely respond" to any aggression against Russia.

Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov said in a speech at the general debate stage of the UN General Assembly on the 27th that some countries have accused Russia of planning to attack NATO and EU countries, and Russian President Putin has repeatedly exposed such provocative acts.

Many American and European analysts believe that Russia's drone operations are intentional. On the one hand, they test Europe's defense capabilities, and on the other hand, they force European defense resources to shift from supporting Ukraine to responding to their own security threats.

However, the Russian side pointed out that the "drone incident" was a deliberate anti-Russian means by the European Union and NATO, trying to find reasons for increasing military spending and increasing pressure on Russia by inciting tension and exaggerating the Russian threat.

Maslenikov, head of the European Affairs Department of the Russian Foreign Ministry, said the EU wanted to use the ¡°hysteria¡± triggered by the drone incident to excuse the EU for increasing its military spending.Vladimir Chiev, the first deputy chairman of the Committee on Defense and Security of the Russian Federation, said Europe had never tried to inform Russia about the drone incident.

Maslenikov warned that the EU¡¯s ¡°drone wall¡± program would exacerbate military and political tensions in the region.

Igor Korozhenko, editor-in-chief of the Russian Defense magazine, said the ¡°drone wall¡± as a military infrastructure could be used both for defense and for attack, a plan that would bring NATO¡¯s military infrastructure ¡°unprecedentedly¡± close to the Russian border.

Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Zakharova, citing Hungarian media investigations on social media,ly said that Ukraine intended to provoke a war between Europe and Russia using drone incidents, which could be the backdrop of NATO¡¯s ¡°hawks¡±. if all this is confirmed, ¡°Europe has never been so close to World War III.¡±
