Ukrainian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Heorhii Tykhyi about the downing of a drone over Estonian territory:
"Russia continues to redirect Ukrainian drones into the Baltics with the use of its electronic warfare. And Moscow does this on purpose, together with intensified propaganda.
We apologise to Estonia and all of our Baltic friends for such unintended incidents. We have been and remain in close cooperation between our specialised institutions to get to the heart of the matter in each case and seek ways to prevent them, including with the direct engagement of our expert groups.
We reiterate that – contrary to Russian propaganda claims – neither Estonia, nor Latvia, Lithuania, of Finland have ever allowed to use their airspace for strikes against Russia. Furthermore, Ukraine has never requested such a use.
Ukraine exercises its right to self-defense under Art. 51 of the UN Charter; our legitimate military targets are located in Russia; and we use the Russian airspace to get to them.
The Russians have no right to blame Ukraine, the Baltic states, or Finland for the consequences of its actions and, more broadly, its war of aggression.
We are grateful to our partners in Estonia, Finland, Latvia, and Lithuania for their support and solidarity."
