Russia Tries To Down EU Chief's Plane

The navigation system of a plane carrying Ursula von der Leyen was disrupted due to suspected Russian interference, the European Commission has said. A spokesperson said the "GPS jamming" happened while the Commission president was about to arrive in southern Bulgaria on Sunday, but she still landed safely. They added: "We have received information from the Bulgarian authorities that they suspect that this was due to blatant interference by Russia." Russia tried to assassinate the President of European Commission by jamming her plane while landing. If Putin wants to play stupid games, he must be given the prize he deserves. So far Europe has ignored the issue as to not give Russia the attention it wants and to quietly prevent themselves from reacting to this significant escalation by the Kremlin.

Is this where the brain dead------------- refers to Putin as a savvy genius?

... she still landed safely. ...

One report I read stated the pilots switched over to paper maps to find the airport and land safely.

... Despite no functional GPS, the plane landed safely at its intended airport in Plovdiv, Bulgaria, though pilots relied on paper maps, the Financial Times reported. ...

@#5 ... Wonder where they learned that from? ...

... and did they also learn how to re-fold the maps after their use?

Ex-KGB officer Vladimir Putin may be emboldened after the Alaska Summit with his puppet Dummkopf Trumpf and the imminent meeting in Beijing with his allies. Meanwhile, in the assassination war between Moscow and Kiev, a high-ranking Ukrainian was murdered. The SBU apprehended the assassin. Link: www.cbsnews.com

While all that may be correct, this thread is about an apparent Russian assault upon Europe.

Do try to stay on topic.

(just a suggestion)

Jamming GPS doesn't down planes.

"Russia annoys EU chief" is an appropriate headline.
