As long as the war continues in Ukraine, there is no threat to the Baltic countries from Russia.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said that Russia is demonstrating that it may be ready to commit aggressive provocations in the Baltic region.

Polish F-16 fighters intercepted and escorted a Russian Il-20 reconnaissance aircraft twice, on 3 and 6 May, flying over neutral waters of the Baltic Sea without violating Polish airspace.

No one can say for sure when a possible Russian aggression against Poland might begin. However, Putin may already conduct a mini-operation against one of the Baltic states.

On Thursday, French Mirage 2000-5 fighters intercepted two Russian Su-30Ms over the Baltic Sea, and later an An-72.

After a meeting with his Latvian and Estonian counterparts, Lithuanian Minister of Transport and Communications Marius Skuodis said that the Baltic states support the inclusion of Russian and Belarusian grain in the EU sanctions package.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has notably amplified a longstanding Kremlin effort to set information conditions for future escalations against the Baltic countries, likely as part of his wider effort to weaken NATO.

President of the Republic of Lithuania Gitanas Nausėda believes that, upon the development of port corridors in the Baltic Sea, up to 10 million tonnes of Ukrainian grain could be shipped annually.

In view of Russia's withdrawal from the Black Sea Grain Initiative, Lithuania considers it expedient to make wider use of the Baltic route for Ukrainian grain export. It involves Baltic ports in export operations with Ukrainian food. Customs and border clearance procedures for such cargoes should also be done there.

Ukraine seeks to cooperate with the Baltic states in the oil and gas sector and electricity, in particular, in the implementation of programs on decentralization of the energy system and the development of bioenergy and cogeneration projects.

Foreign ministers of Northern European and Baltic states have committed to continue supporting Ukraine politically and practically to ensure the country’s defense capabilities.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has met with Foreign Ministers of Estonia, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, Finland and Sweden and thanked the Baltic states and Northern Europe for their consistently active and efficient support for Ukraine in defending its territorial integrity and independence.
