European leaders meet in high-security Danish summit after drone disruption

Danish PM calls for strong answer from EU leaders to Russia's hybrid attacks EU leaders have met in Copenhagen under pressure to boost European defence after a series of Russian incursions into EU airspace, and days after drones targeted Danish airports. Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen told reporters that from a European perspective there is only one country... willing to threaten us and that is Russia, and therefore we need a very strong answer back. The incursions have become most acute for countries on the EU's eastern flank such as Poland and Estonia. A number of member states have already backed plans for a multi-layered drone wall to quickly detect, then track and destroy Russian drones. We meet at a time when Russia have intensified their attacks in Ukraine, where we have seen Russian airspace violations and unwanted drone activity in several European countries, Frederiksen told a news conference after the talks had concluded.
