The German Green Party has introduced legislative motions addressing environmental and security concerns in the North and Baltic Seas. Member of Parliament Linda Heitmann proposed measures to reduce man-made underwater noise from shipping, cable construction, and offshore wind installations, suggesting speed limits and subsidies for noise-reducing technologies.

Concurrently, Anton Hofreiter, Chairman of the Bundestag’s Europe Committee, has called for the deployment of the Bundeswehr to intercept Russia’s ‘shadow fleet’ in the Baltic Sea. Hofreiter argues that these vessels pose security risks and operate illegally, urging the Bundestag to provide the political backing necessary for the German Navy to conduct boardings, similar to actions taken by France and Belgium.
