The Spin

Pro-establishment narrative

Russia continues to brazenly provoke and violate Western airspace. These are calculated incursions aimed at testing NATO's limits while hoping that its members take their eye off Ukraine to focus on their own defenses.

Pro-Russia narrative

Reports that Russia violated Estonia's airspace are false. The Russian jets made a scheduled flight from Karelia to Kaliningrad in strict accordance with airspace rules and without violating Estonia's airspace. This can be proven with objective monitoring of the flight paths.
