Russia criticizes NATO exercises in the Baltic Sea
(Baonghean.vn)- The exercise on the North Atlantic Alliance's Northern Coast in the Baltic Sea confirms NATO's nature as a belligerent military organization. The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, stated this at a press conference within the framework of the Eastern Economic Forum (EEF).
“The NATO Northern Coast 2023 exercises were held in the Baltic Sea from September 9 to 23 under the command of the German Navy. As stated, the purpose of the exercises is to test “realistic scenarios for protecting the northern flanks of the alliance”. Such activities once again confirm: NATO is an aggressive military organization,” Zakharova stressed.
“Another example of so-called strange behavior, when the Baltic Sea, which has always been a peaceful area, through the intentions of NATO members, has turned into another area of geopolitical confrontation,” Ms. Zakharova added.
The Russian Foreign Ministry representative stated that NATO's exercises in the Baltic Sea "once again confirm that NATO is an organization" that "constantly seeks enemies to justify its existence, buys billions of dollars, creates chaos in Bankova (the office of the President of Ukraine) and has strange relations with the West"./.
