NATO promises more support to Ukraine after Russian drone attacks near the border with Poland

SAPO Notícias14 September 2026 at 14:32

NATO promised more support to Ukraine following Russian drone attacks carried out near the border with Poland. This promise comes at a time of escalating tensions in the region.

NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte said that Russia is becoming increasingly reckless by continuing what he described as its terrible war against Ukraine. Rutte made these statements in the context of recent Russian air attacks.

Russian drone attacks near the Polish border have been increasing in recent weeks, raising concerns among NATO allies. Poland, as a member of the alliance, has been strengthening its security measures along its eastern borders.

NATO's promise of more support to Ukraine reflects the growing concern of allies regarding the intensification of Russian attacks, which have targeted increasingly close objectives to the territory of the Atlantic alliance.

Why this matters

The escalation of Russian attacks near the NATO border raises security concerns for the Alliance's member countries, including Portugal, which could be affected by a potential expansion of the conflict. Rutte's commitment signals a possible intensification of Western support for Ukraine, which may have implications for the war's dynamics and for international relations.
