In a rare dangerous incident and close-call, European media reports have described that the crew of a Russian ship fired upon a Germany army helicopter which was monitoring the vessel’s movements in the Baltic Sea.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cGerman Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock announced increased surveillance in the Baltic Sea after a Russian ship fired at a Bundeswehr helicopter during a mission<\/em>,\u201d EuroNews<\/em><\/a> writes.<\/p>\n

The Bundeswehr helicopter was confirmed to have been on a reconnaissance mission at an unclear date and time, but the Russian ship \u2013 described in The Daily Mail <\/em>as a warship \u2013 fired signaling ammunition in an apparent effort to warn the aircraft off.<\/p>\n

Baerbock disclosed the incident for the first time on the sidelines of a NATO foreign minister’s meeting in Brussels, but gave few other details.<\/p>\n

\u201cSignal ammunition is used for warning shots rather than attack, but this sort of incident is a sign of how close NATO and Russia are getting to facing each other directly<\/em>,\u201d Daily Mail<\/em><\/a> concludes.<\/p>\n

Currently there’s a lot of Western monitoring of the Baltic Sea after several communications cables which link Finland, Sweden, Germany, and Lithuania were severed in a suspected sabotage incident.<\/p>\n

Allegations and focus have remained on the Chinese vessel Yi Peng 3<\/em> which was observed in the area at the time of the suspected sabotage. It’s believed to have intentionally dragged its anchor<\/a> to damage the underwater cables. The Swedish government has demanded answers of Beijing.<\/p>\n

Tensions have been soaring of late between Berlin and Moscow, given Baerbock also told NATO allies that all options are on the table regarding the Ukraine war, presumably even the potential for deploying Western troops there.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Russian state media has picked up on her hinting at this scenario<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\u201cShe suggested that a potential peace deal could include security guarantees for Kiev, such as the prospect of NATO membership and continued military support from the West, as well as an international peacekeeping mission.<\/em><\/p>\n

Asked about what military role Germany could play in such a deal, Baerbock was quoted by the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (FAZ) as saying that \u2018only we as Europeans can protect peace together,\u2019 suggesting that EU countries, including Germany, could send their soldiers to Ukraine.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n

Kremlin is unlikely to ever accept a deal which puts NATO ‘peacekeeping’ forces even closer on its doorstep. Thus Russian officials are deeply suspicious of any talk of peacekeeping troops.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

With the Russian army on the offensive, making continual and steady gains in Donbas, Putin is not going to be in the mood to concede much if and when direct negotiations finally occur.<\/p>\n
