Putin preparing to attack another European country, Zelenskyy says
Source: The Guardian
Speaking in Kyiv after his meeting with Donald Trump at the UN in New York, the Ukrainian president said Russia was preparing for a bigger conflict. Putin will not wait to finish his war in Ukraine. He will open up some other direction. Nobody knows where. He wants that, he said.
Ukraines president said the Kremlin was deliberately checking Europes capacity to protect its skies, after drone sightings in Denmark, Poland and Romania and the violation of Estonian airspace by Russian fighter jets. More drones were spotted on Friday night above a Danish military base, and over a Norwegian base on Saturday.
Zelenskyy suggested EU governments were struggling to deal with this new and dangerous threat. Earlier this month, Ukraine spotted 92 drones flying towards Poland in a choreographed way. It intercepted most of them. Nineteen crossed into Polish territory, where the Poles shot four down.
I am not comparing our forces. We are at war and they [Poland] are not, he said. Zelenskyy said representatives from several unnamed countries would travel to Ukraine to receive practical training in how to repel Russian aerial attacks. We are ready to share our experience, he added.

They had sweetheart money deals with Putin and didn't want to mess that up.
Europe hopes the US will take care of things.
But they are on their own now.

The only question I have is will Putin attempt to invade Moldova before he actively takes control of Belarus.
