  On Friday Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov responded to threats of shooting down Russian aircraft made by NATO member nations and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen over the last few days. The fiery rhetoric sits upon this week’s backdrop of drone hysteria and talk of war hanging over Europe. On Thursday Bloomberg published an article which said:
  –
  European diplomats warned the Kremlin this week that NATO is ready to respond to further violations of its airspace with full force, including by shooting down Russian planes, according to officials familiar with the exchange.
  –
  At a tense meeting in Moscow, British, French and German envoys addressed their concerns about an incursion by three MiG-31 fighter jets over Estonia last week, according to the officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity as the talks took place behind closed doors. Following the conversation, they concluded that the violation had been a deliberate tactic ordered by Russian commanders.

  The Kremlin spokesman was asked about the Bloomberg article. “I don’t even want to talk about this. It’s a very irresponsible statement. It’s very irresponsible because the accusations against Russia that its military aircraft violated someone’s airspace and invaded someone else’s one are groundless. No convincing evidence of this has been presented,” Peskov said. “Ask Bloomberg where they got this information.”
