Could NATO consider this an attack on its territory? | DW News

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says a ship carrying Ukrainian grain has been hit by a Russian missile in the Black Sea.
He posted images showing the damaged vessel on social media. Ukraine says the ship was in waters off the coast of NATO-member Romania when it was hit. Zelenskyy is calling for a global response to what he says is a direct attack on vital shipping routes and global food security.

This empire of lies is living its last days.

[muhammadhassan]

Zelenskyy doing his best to take NATO in this war

[agtyu]

I didn't watch video yet, but can predict that they are going to do completely nothing.

[Os_man]

I wasted my time listening to this nonsense.

[Robert-xyxi]

Who is Germany blaming for destroying the Nordstream pipelines!

[oceanblueavanue]

I wouldn't be surprised if the same people who attacked the north stream pipeline are involved in this attack too

[Herodotus__]

Romania denied it was hit in its water😂😂 The comedian in cargo pants try everything 😂😂 and DW parroting the comedians BS!

[davidpalin]

Nato has already been attacked.
Ukraine 🇺🇦 fired missiles into Poland 🇵🇱
Killing two people

[massib]

You can see the frustration on the interviewee 😂😂😂

[chenosee]

There is no international law. Wonder why keep talking about it.

[spiraboy]

The fact that this guy said ‘’unfortunately it is not inside of territorial jurisdiction of Romania’’ tells you that this guy is a warmonger.

[sandbox]

No, they are not going to consider it as attack even if it hits residential building in Romania 😅

[WilliamHarkins-iu]

Russia is seeing how far they can go without any consequences

[Snotbubble]

They would never. They are too cowardly.

[kbboy]

So Romania in whose waters this apparently happened is not the one making noise but Zelensky is happy to instigate further wars to help his failing incursion?

[ragingmonk]

Well, Zelenskyy forgot to mention that the ship left the safety zone. How odd that he would leave such an important detail out.

[josephshields]

Question: If Ukraine attacked a Russian ship in Romanian Territory would you even be reporting it? Remember when Zelensky fired a missile into Poland?

[Jojo_Racing]

So this will be the fourth time we try to destroy the Russian state? 😁 it didn’t work even when they didn’t have the ability to destroy the planet! So why all these Einstein’s think it’s possible now?

[setiandromeda]

Scare mongering is too much.this war may eventually lead to a global catastrophe.zelensky promotes NATO vs russia ad if that happens we are all v8ctims ad its bye bye to the state of Ukraine.common sense

[lynkDom-wfio]

Zelensky is trying so hard to start a WWIII. First he destroyed gas pipelines between Russia and Germany and trying hard to push NATO into war one way or another.
