YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Three Russian MiG-31 fighter jets entered skies above Estonia on the morning of September 19, violating the country's airspace. The jets remained there for 12 minutes and their presence forced jets from NATO members to be scrambled.

Former Estonian president Toomas Hendrik Ilves joined James Hanson to analyse the response from NATO.

He said that "nothing was really done" and predicted there needs to be "a mass casualty event before the member states are forced to actually take this seriously".
