According to British media reports, NATO is considering taking "hard" actions against Russia.

According to a source quoted by the Financial Times on Thursday, NATO is considering allowing its pilots to fire on unauthorized Russian military aircraft,And significantly enhance its military presence on the Russian border.

Several Western countries have repeatedly claimed that Russia has repeatedly violated EU airspace, which Moscow has denied last month, when Estonia and Poland accused Russian aircraft of entering its airspace illegally.

Western media also speculated that drone interference incidents in many European Union countries may be related to Russia. Moscow said the West had never provided any evidence against the allegations.

According to the Financial Times, Several NATO member states are discussing a ¡°stricter response¡± to Russia.

It was that the discussions included: weapons with drones for current surveillance missions by the Russian military, lowering the threshold for NATO fighter pilots to open fire against potential threats, and considering military exercises directly along the Russian border.

Two NATO officials told the newspaper that it is urgent to unify the rules of war between member states.The current rules vary: some require pilots to look at targets before firing, while others are allowed to fight based on radar data or target speed.

Sources revealed that the proposal, initiated by Russia's neighbors and supported by France and Britain, has developed into an alliance level discussion, but is still in its early stages. Some countries advocate tough deterrence policies, while others call for restraint to avoid direct conflict.

The report comes just after the EU held a summit last week on building a ¡°drone wall¡± to defend against the so-called Russian invasion.

Russia has repeatedly accused NATO of heightening tensions along its borders by expanding its military deployments and exercises. Kremlin spokesman Peskov previously stressed thatDue to NATO's support for Ukraine , the alliance is "de facto at war with Russia."

Russia has responded with practical actions, not only conducting the "Western 2025" joint strategic military exercise with Belarus, but also dispatching Tu-160 strategic bombers to cruise and deter them. The Russian Foreign Ministry warned that NATO's measures such as lowering the firing threshold are "playing with fire" and will greatly increase the risk of misjudgment. The Russians will be opposed.

The cracks within the alliance are equally apparent, and the ¡°drone wall¡± plan has fallen into a deadlock, while issues such as uniformity of war rules and military cost allocation have exacerbated the differences between member states.

In the context of NATO¡¯s Eastern Wing military exercises and Russian counter-operations, this ¡°hard-to-hard¡± cycle is pushing Europe to the edge of danger, and the consequences will go far beyond expectation once the gun is wiped out.
