US vows are worth nothing these days.
“Suspected”
Sadly, this is a statement from an acting US ambassador to the UN. No approval confirmed from Krasnov and his pack of cronies.
“Don’t worry, we will defend you” they say, hiding a knife behind their back.
At least, Trump was more upfront when he said he would encourage Russia to attack us.
UNITED NATIONS, Sept 12 (Reuters) – The United States told the United Nations Security Council on Friday it would “defend every inch of NATO territory” after a suspected Russian drone incursion into Poland.
“The United States stands by our NATO allies in the face of these alarming airspace violations,” acting U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Dorothy Shea told the 15-member body.
The remarks appear aimed at assuaging Washington’s NATO allies after U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday said Russia’s alleged drone incursion into Poland could have been a mistake.
Shea also noted Russia has intensified its bombing campaign against Ukraine since Trump met with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska as part of his bid to broker an end to Moscow’s more than three-year war in Ukraine.
“These actions, now with the addition of violating the airspace of a U.S. ally – intentionally or otherwise – show immense disrespect for good-faith U.S. efforts to bring an end to this conflict,” Shea said.
Poland shot down drones in its airspace on Wednesday with the backing of aircraft from its NATO allies, the first time a member of the Western military alliance is known to have fired shots during Russia’s war in Ukraine.
“We know, and I repeat, we know that it was not a mistake,” Poland’s Secretary of State Marcin Bosacki told the council. He showed photos of a downed drone, pointing out Russian lettering on parts of it. “Poland will not be intimidated.”
‘PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE’
Slovenia’s U.N. Ambassador Samuel Zbogar also sought to dispel the suggestion that the drone incursion could have been a mistake, telling the council “it is hard to imagine that so many drones flew so deep over Polish territory, unintentionally.”
Russia has said its forces had been attacking Ukraine at the time of the drone incursions and that it had not intended to hit targets in Poland.
“There were no targets marked on Polish territory,” Russia’s U.N. Ambassador Vassily Nebenzia told the council. “The maximum range of the drones used in this strike did not exceed 700 kilometers, which makes it physically impossible for them to have reached Polish territory.”
He said Moscow was willing to speak with Poland “if the Polish side indeed is interested in reducing tensions rather than fomenting tensions.”
The U.S. also joined Western allies in a joint statement on Friday to express concern about Russia’s drone incursion and accuse Moscow of violating international law and the founding U.N. Charter.
The statement, read by Bosacki ahead of the Security Council meeting, also called on Russia to stop “its war of aggression against Ukraine” and desist from further provocations.
The joint statement was backed by 43 countries.

Also the US: “but that was a mistake for sure, not an attack 🤷🏻♂️”

I mean that’s cool and all, but why didn’t the US help in hunting and shooting down those drones then?
This is a good second insurance .
But the European NATO countries must have their own strength, so that they do not depend too much on the US.
This isn’t the US saying this, the pedo in charge already stated otherwise. This is a random UN nobody, the very definition of useless. Completely misleading title
There you go EU we got your back. Even if you don’t want it
This is meaningless if Trump doesn’t says this. He changes policy on a whim anyway. Warm words from a ambassador mean nothing.
Somehow i don’t believe this
believe it when it happens…
The country hosting the biggest US base in the Middle East got bombed with no US reaction despite their defence agreement.
I m not going to cry for a few terrorists, but the US vows are pretty worthless at the moment.
BS
We are fortunate that Trump’s waffles were well cooked today; if tomorrow his eggs are cold he will throw a temper tantrum on Twitter and reverse course on everything.
But if Sunday’s coffee is nice and warm…
A vow! That’s almost as good as a pinky promise!
Today we promise to defend Poland, tomorrow we throw them under the bus. The next day we make even more promises. And repeat the cycle. Who do you trust ??
Worth less than paper it would be printed on
Relying on the word of the Americans may prove more dangerous than ignoring russian threats.
They are not our friends, no longer.
Good joke
I’ll believe it when I actually see it.
