Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News

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.
