One Baltic diplomatic official said Russia is 'trolling' NATO states as it seeks new leverage in Ukraine.
NATO's Baltic states are preparing for an escalation in tension after Russia threatened retaliation against Lithuania for imposing European Union sanctions on certain goods heading to the Kaliningrad exclave, part of Russia wedged between Poland and Lithuania on the Baltic Sea coast.The Kremlin has warned Lithuania of 'serious consequences' for its application of EU sanctions on certain goods, including Russian steel and iron ore.
Bloc foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said this week there is 'no blockade,' adding: 'If the transit through European Union territories are prohibited for some goods, then it is prohibited.'While Moscow threatens action against Lithuania, officials in Estonia have accused Russia of running missile attack simulations against the country and of violating its airspace using a helicopter.
