A cooperation between countries around the Baltic Sea that have the same sense of threat from Russia, develops Donald Tusk in connection with the ongoing Nordic-Baltic meeting at Harpsund, reports Bloomberg.
He refers to the fact that there is already a similar cooperation within NATO for air patrols around the Baltic Sea.
Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson (M) says at a joint press conference at Harpsund that the issue is complicated but the proposal is logical.
We have problems on and under the surface of the Baltic Sea. There are good reasons to discuss this further very carefully and in a positive spirit.
The discussions about joint surveillance in the Baltic Sea have gained renewed relevance since two communication cables near Sweden were cut on November 17-18.
Suspicions are directed towards Russia, which is believed to have carried out the sabotage via a Chinese vessel that is now being monitored in Danish waters.
