The Romanian case is alway dicey as Ukrainian countermeasures quite often redirect drones with little control over their final destination, the Latvian one is Russian mischief making.
The important thing is that they were both shot down.

Not really surprising, Russia is like politics where corruption is endemic.

Unfortunately they are neither in NATO nor the EU so they are fair game for Putin.
Putin has threatened them previously. There are, or were?, Russian troops stationed there when the war started.

There a limited number of Russian officers in the region but most of the rank and file are locals with Russian passports.

Ukraine has a new Trump problem: Accusations are swirling that America held back critical intel on a Russian missile attack
Given that it has happened three times now and the story has changed twice (first was "bad weather" and the second "software issues") I think it is fair to say that the US is now actively supporting Russia.
My guess is that Agent Orange has been given orders by Vlad the Invader to do as much as possible to cripple Ukraine before the Republicans potentially lose control of Congress in 3 weeks and someone is elected that will make Trump the lame duck, he is.
Good chance of it.
