Trump Suggests Russia Sent Drones into Poland by “Mistake”

HeadlineSep 12, 2025

President Trump is calling Russia’s drone incursion into Poland “a mistake,” while NATO members are calling it a deliberate provocation. France’s President Emmanuel Macron said, “We will not yield to Russia’s growing intimidation.” Germany’s Chancellor Friedrich Merz called Russia’s actions a “serious threat to Europe.” This is Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk.

Prime Minister Donald Tusk: “We don’t think Russia is behind this provocation — we know it. I hope that none of our allies will pretend that nothing happened, because it did happen.”

Several NATO members, including the Netherlands, the Czech Republic, Germany and France, are sending troops, artillery and air defense systems to NATO’s eastern flank.
