NATO forces are tightening patrols in the Baltic Sea following a pair of “man-made disasters” fueling suspicion that Russia has begun a long-feared hybrid warfare campaign against alliance infrastructure.
Sweden applied to join NATO in tandem with Finland. Most allies have ratified its accession to the security alliance. Turkey and Hungary have delayed their ratification of the application because the process may provide them diplomatic leverage in separate disputes with the United States and the European Union.
“We have to think about everything, so why we’re investigating, together with Finland and Sweden, what really happened,” Tsahkna said. “Also, we are members of NATO. So we are having a communication between our partners, NATO, and also the EU. But we take it very seriously.” Russian President Vladimir Putin’s spokesman denied responsibility for the incident."Russia has never had anything to do and will never have anything to do with any actions of this kind,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov insisted.
“If it's clearly proven to be Russia, the ... discussion has to be that to protect our critical infrastructure, there needs to be a conversation about how we can close the Baltic Sea,” Rinkevics told Latvian Public Broadcasting.
