Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on Saturday warned of a “decisive response” to any “aggression” after US President Donald Trump backed calls to shoot down Russian planes that violate NATO airspace.

Speaking at the UN General Assembly, Lavrov said “Russia is being accused of almost planning to attack the North Atlantic alliance and the European Union countries,” Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov told the UN General Assembly.

“Russia has never had and does not have any such intentions. However, any aggression against my country will be met with a decisive response,” he said.

NATO’s Secretary General Mark Rutte on Thursday backed U.S. President Donald Trump’s comments this week that NATO member countries should shoot down Russian drones and airplanes if they enter their airspace, if such a move was necessary.

“If so necessary. So I totally agree here with President Trump: if so necessary,” Rutte said in an interview on Fox News’ “Fox & Friends” program, adding that NATO militaries are trained to assess such threats and determine whether they can escort Russian planes out of allied territory or take further action.
