Russia committed an act of war against a NATO country. Thank you mods for resolving fairly.

and germany still hasn't given ukraine a taurus missile. Wouldn't want to provoke russia now would we?

@Dulaman appeasement never works

@Lorelai ha, just read the comments section of this question and see the crap spouted by users like @AnT

stupid people never learn

@Dulaman you should check out the market on Poland, created by someone trying to pretend that Russia sending 19 kamikaze drones into Poland wasn't an act of war. Completely mind boggling.

@Lorelai these people have been getting pumped with russian misinformation over many years, past a certain point they're conditioned to say the words all by themselves. No matter how delusional it is

@traders russian attack drone was sent into Poland and hit a house

Question resolves NO

To be clear: if this was a planned target and not an unmeant action it should resolve No. But otherwise the target was just an error or damage due to other causes. Do I get this right?

@DaniellqdC6 sending attack drones into another countries airspace is an act of aggression. If those drones go on to hit civilian or military infrastructure then that qualifies in the context of this question.


In this instance, it is clear that Russia intended to provoke Poland. Poland responded by shooting down the drones, which then hit civilian targets. But it is unambiguously Russia who is as fault and triggered this course of events. As such, this question resolves NO.

@DaniellqdC6 Same thing for when Russian send attack drones into Ukraine's airspace. Ukraine shoots down the drones and some then go on to hit civilian infrastructure. Russia still "succeeds" in hitting civilian targets in these circumstances.

bought Ṁ90 NO

@mods resolves NO

Giving a missile is not particularly instantaneous; will this resolve using the time when the offer was signed (and what if that's unknown), when the missile crossed the border (unlikely to be known either) or what?

Asking this because it's particularly likely that a target in a NATO country is hit because of Taurus shipment.

@AnT "Asking this because it's particularly likely that a target in a NATO country is hit because of Taurus shipment." -- this is bullshit

@MalachiteEagle you're very welcome to bet against, on I don't know which market.

What about a strike on NATO the Russians claim was intended for Ukraine, but strayed too far west?

bought Ṁ30 YES

@JussiVilleHeiskanen seems that counts

In the few days following Scholz's phone call to Putin, Russia has responded with a massive missile barrage targeted at Ukrainian civilians, and by cutting an undersea cable between Germany and Finland.

Are you people really betting it it is more likely to see a Russian missile attack on a NATO country than Germany providing Taurus to Ukraine? Maybe the Taurus will not be given, but Russian attack on NATO should be much less likely, no?

@JuhoPennanen the fewer weapons Germany gives to Ukraine the greater the likelihood of an attack on a NATO country.

@RemNi looks like that's what happened
