Shoigu frames drone threat as either failed air defenses or NATO airspace use

TL;DR Summary
Russian Security Council Secretary Sergey Shoigu said Russia would defend itself against Ukrainian drone attacks and presented two possible drone origins: Russia’s air defenses being ineffective or drones being launched from the territory of Finland and the Baltic states, a line of reasoning tied to Article 51 of the UN Charter. The remarks come amid broader tensions with NATO and concerns about Estonia, with prior 2025 warnings that Russia could threaten Europe by 2027.
