Russia warns Baltic states of opening territory for strikes on Russia
The Baltic states are playing with fire by providing their territory for strikes on Russia, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Galuzin said on Tuesday, reported Xinhua. By submitting to NATO and EU discipline and providing their territory for hostile actions against Russia in the context of the Ukrainian conflict, the Baltic states are 'playing with fire.' They know this perfectly well, Galuzin said, cited by RIA Novosti. The day before, Galuzin warned that Latvia's NATO membership would not exempt it from the consequences of its involvement in attacks on Russian territory. Last week, Galuzin said Russia had verified information that Latvia and other Baltic countries had already made their airspace available as transit corridors for Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicles conducting attacks against targets within Russian territory. The Baltic states have consistently denied Moscow's accusations.
