Tallinn [Estonia], October 12: NATO reacted appropriately to Russia's recent violations of Estonia's airspace but should expect further disruptive actions from Moscow, according to the Baltic country's foreign minister.
"I'm really sure that Russia will continue these provocations. It's not about Estonia, it's about NATO unity, as well as testing our capabilities, to also trans-Atlantic unity," Margus Tsahkna told dpa on Friday on the sidelines of the Tallinn Digital Summit.
In September, three Russian fighter jets entered the airspace of the EU and NATO member state for about 12 minutes.
The government in Tallinn requested an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council and consultations with its allies under Article 4 of the NATO Treaty. In a subsequent statement, the military alliance warned Russia against further border violations, threatening the use of force. (DPA)
