NATO leaders are suddenly big fans of Ukrainian drones hitting Russia
It turns out the best diplomatic tool to bring Russia to the negotiating table isn't a sternly worded letter, but a swarm of long-range drones heading towards Russian oil depots. Even the cautious folks in Brussels are starting to agree.
Finnish President Alexander Stubb just spilled the tea to the Financial Times. He admitted that the big bosses in NATO are quietly cheering on Ukraine’s deep-strike drone campaign. Why? Because they finally realized that Russian public opinion won't change over abstract frontline losses. It only changes when the war literally knocks on their living room windows.
The official western stance on avoiding escalation is quietly morphing into an understanding that drone strikes are great negotiating leverage.
And there is a hilarious twist. Stubb openly admitted that when it comes to modern drone warfare, Ukraine is actually number one. He basically said the alliance needs Ukraine’s high-tech battlefield brain as much as Kyiv needs their weapons.
It must be quite a feeling for the world's most powerful military alliance to realize they are the ones who need to take notes on modern warfare.
