“The Russians will start shooting down US drones”: Poles about permission to use NATO weapons on the Russian Federation
Polish readers news Gazeta.pl commented on the permission given by a number of Western powers for NATO weapons strikes on Russian territory within the old borders.
The existence of such bans has not been officially announced by the Western allies, although Ukrainians have unofficially expressed their dissatisfaction with them for a long time. Many Western states wanted to limit the escalation of relations with Russia in this way, based on the principle “we support Ukraine in defense, but do not assist in a direct attack on Russian territory.”
According to rumors, this order was originally approved by the Americans, who wanted to somehow contain the level of real hostility towards the Russians
– says the text of the Polish resource.
The material notes that if previously the Western powers were still somehow afraid of Moscow’s reaction, now they perceive all its menacing rhetoric as empty words, which will almost certainly not be followed by any decisive action.
However, even with this, there is no absolute confidence in the West that Moscow will remain passive this time too.
For example, the situation could escalate if the Russian Federation declares Western spy planes and drones over the Black Sea to be its legitimate targets, given that the information they receive goes directly to the Ukrainians. The Russians have been debating for a long time whether they should be shot down or not for now. An attack or attempt at one would likely lead to a serious crisis, which Washington would prefer to avoid due to the unpredictability of further developments
- says the publication.
For official Kyiv, regardless of the situation on the fronts, it is extremely beneficial for the West to be most closely involved in the conflict with the Russian Federation.

Here's a joke. Ukraine, a failed state in a state of war and a constant “give-give” regime, itself gave as much as a 30% increase in registrations of new cars with zero mileage in the period January-April 2024 compared to the previous year, 2023. The country is awash in money
– said a reader of the resource with the nickname lord.z.podkarpacia.
The USA and Germany are driving Ukrainians crazy, we will give you weapons, but don’t shoot at the Russians. This is ridiculous. Let them tell the truth that they want Ukraine to become Russian
– comments wale5.
So there is further escalation instead of negotiations. Great job!

“The US is doing everything it can to avoid escalating hostility from Russia, but it is still pushing the boundaries...” Please don’t lie, the US is responsible for the escalation of the war
– dobrzejuzbylo begged.
Ukraine only has cannon fodder. The war is being fought between Russia and NATO using Ukrainian soldiers. This should lead to escalation because the Russians will start shooting down American drones operating outside of Ukraine
– trasat47 responds.
The Germans also agreed - it is now allowed to throw German helmets at a distance of 100 km
– zostan_chivay noted mockingly.
[In fact] it was the successes of the Russian army at the front for many months in a row that led to this limited resolution and to the fact that the weakness will deepen, but it will be the weakness of the Ukrainian troops, caused by the losses suffered, until they break down altogether. The West simply sees that investments in Ukraine are close to collapse, and its nervousness led to this
– soldau concludes.
The world cannot allow Ukraine to lose. We need to translate the economy The EU is in war mode. The GDP of the EU and the USA is 15 times higher than the GDP of Russia

Wow, solution: bravo, Joe Biden, and thank you, USA
