Rep. Joe Wilson (R-S.C.) blasted Russia’s overnight drone encroachment into Poland’s airspace as an “act of war,” and called on President Trump to levy tougher sanctions on Moscow over the incursion.

“Russia is attacking NATO ally Poland with Iranian shahed drones less than a week after President Trump hosted [Polish] President [Karol] Nawrocki at the White House,” Wilson wrote in a Tuesday night post on the social platform X.

“This is an act of war, and we are grateful to NATO allies for their swift response to war criminal [Russian President Vladimir] Putin’s continued unprovoked aggression against free and productive nations,” he added.

Officials in Poland said Wednesday that the country’s military shot down Russian drones that “repeatedly violated” the country’s airspace during an attack on neighboring Ukraine.

“We are most likely dealing with a large-scale provocation,” Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said in a televised address. “The situation is serious, and no one doubts that we must prepare for various scenarios.”

Wilson, a member of Armed Services Committee, said the sanction penalties on the Kremlin should be harsh enough to “bankrupt the Russian war machine.”

The South Carolina lawmaker, a long-time critic of Putin and Russia’s war against Ukraine, also urged Trump to increase weapons supplies for Kyiv.

“Putin is no longer content just losing in Ukraine while bombing mothers and babies, he is now directly testing our resolve in NATO territory,” Wilson wrote. “Putin stated that ‘Russia knows no borders.’ Free and prosperous nations will teach Russia about borders.”
