Moscow will necessarily take retaliatory measures to the NATO operation on patrolling the Baltic Sea under the name "Baltic Sentry". This was stated on the air of the Rossiya-24 TV channel by Russian Ambassador to Belgium Alexander Tokovinin.
"Recently, in January, a new decision was made by the North Atlantic Alliance to launch an operation in the Baltic called the Baltic Sentry, which involves sending additional warships and additional air forces there. And, of course, retaliatory measures will be taken from the Russian side," the ambassador said.
