During a recent diplomatic mission in Moscow, the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs publicly refuted statements made by Mikhail Galuzin, the deputy to the Russian Foreign Minister. The rejection specifically addressed claims suggesting that the Baltic countries had opened their airspace to attacks targeting locations within Russia. The temporary representatives from Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia utilized the platform to draw attention to a prior joint statement issued by the foreign ministers of the three countries on April 10 of this year.
They asserted that despite the consistently articulated official stances taken by Latvia, Estonia, and Lithuania at multiple diplomatic levels, the Russian side continues to disseminate misinformation and heighten tensions. The representatives firmly stated that the baltic nations consider the recent Russian statements to be entirely baseless. Furthermore, they reiterated the definitive position that unmanned aerial vehicles are prohibited from entering the sovereign airspace of the baltic countries.
This exchange highlighted a significant diplomatic disagreement regarding regional security protocols and airspace sovereignty, with the Baltic nations maintaining their coordinated stance against the narratives presented by Russian officials.
