The Baltic nation and NATO member previously claimed that three military aircraft violated its airspace for 12 minutes in what it called an "unprecedented brazen" incursion. "Our neighbors have now imagined that Russia is at fault for an incursion into Estonian airspace," Polyansky said on Monday, referring to last week's incident. Estonia could have established these facts on its own but doing so was not on Tallinn's agenda, the Russian diplomat said. The Russian Defense Ministry had also earlier denied the accusation, saying that its jets flew over the neutral waters of the Baltic Sea "without violating Estonian airspace." The alleged incident took place just weeks after Poland accused Russia of sending at least 19 drones into its airspace, a claim Moscow denied.
