爱沙尼亚援引北约第4条,指控俄罗斯喷气式飞机侵犯其领空,引发了紧急联盟磋商。 Estonia invoked NATO’s Article 4 after alleging Russian jets breached its airspace, prompting urgent alliance consultations.

爱沙尼亚触发了北约第4条, 在指控三架俄罗斯战斗机侵犯其领空12分钟后寻求协商。 俄罗斯否认这一说法。 Estonia has triggered NATO’s Article 4, seeking consultations after alleging three Russian fighter jets violated its airspace for 12 minutes, a claim Russia denies. 这标志着两周后第4条的第二次使用,凸显了对俄罗斯在欧洲的活动的日益关切。 This marks the second use of Article 4 in two weeks, highlighting growing concern over Russian activity in Europe. 第4条允许任何成员在安全受到威胁时要求紧急会谈,促进联盟团结而不需要军事反应。 Article 4 allows any member to request urgent talks when security is threatened, fostering alliance unity without requiring a military response. 与启动集体防御并只使用过一次的第5条不同的是,第4条促进了讨论和协调。 Unlike Article 5, which activates collective defense and has been used only once, Article 4 prompts discussion and coordination. 在俄罗斯无人驾驶飞机进入其领空后,波兰曾援引过波兰,导致北约加强了巡逻。 Poland previously invoked it after Russian drones entered its airspace, leading to enhanced NATO patrols. 自北约组织成立以来,第4条被使用过九次,主要是在与俄罗斯的紧张关系中,特别是2014年以来。 Since NATO’s founding, Article 4 has been used nine times, mostly amid tensions with Russia, especially since 2014.
