NEW YORK, September 11. /TASS/. NATO is preparing a "defensive military response" to the drone incident in Poland aimed at strengthening the alliance's eastern flank, Bloomberg reports citing a person familiar with the matter.
According to it, the alliance is preparing two "responses" - political and military. The first political reaction has already been delivered by NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte and the leaders of the alliance countries, who blamed Russia, the agency said.
The military response will be coordinated by Supreme Allied Commander Europe Alexus Grynkewich.
"His command is now assessing the situation and what supplies, if any, would be needed, the person said. NATO is a defensive alliance and any response would focus on strengthening its deterrence posture," Bloomberg said.
In the early hours of September 10, the Polish army destructed several UAVs that had invaded the country's airspace.
