Baltic countries face growing threats from Russia. Around ten people, linked to Russia, were arrested at the start of the week for having acted against Estonia.

Estonia estimate that they still have three to four years ahead of them to strengthen their defense system and prepare for a possible conflict with Russia. The armies of the three Baltic countries are modernizing at a rapid pace. In Estonia, the creation of a division is well advanced. In Lithuania, a German brigade will be deployed by 2027.
