preparing for a potential war with Moscow.
'Newsweek' reports that NATO's
front-line states that border Russia are
preparing for a potential war with Moscow.
In January, defense ministers agreed to a new plan to build extensive fortifications meant to stop a potential Russian incursion which has been feared across northeastern Europe. .
Estonia, one of the countries included in the plan,
shares a 210-mile border with Russia and will install
some 600 bunkers meant to prevent an invasion.
The war in Ukraine has shown
that taking back already conquered
territories is extremely difficult and
comes at great cost of human lives,
time and material resources, Susan Lilleväli, undersecretary for defense readiness
at the Estonian Defense Ministry, via 'Newsweek'.
Susan Lilleväli, the undersecretary for defense readiness
at the Estonian Defense Ministry, discussed the
$64.7 million project during a February 8 press conference.
In addition to equipment,
ammunition and manpower,
we need physical installations
to defend our countries efficiently, Susan Lilleväli, undersecretary for defense readiness
at the Estonian Defense Ministry, via 'Newsweek'.
According to Lilleväli, the planned Baltic defensive
line is part of NATO's updated "forward defense
posture and deterrence by denial" approach.
These installations serve, first,
the purpose of avoiding military
conflict in our region, as they could
potentially change the enemy's calculus, Susan Lilleväli, undersecretary for defense readiness
at the Estonian Defense Ministry, via 'Newsweek'.
Counter-mobility and fortification
measures have played a significant
role in wars in our region in history,
for example in Finland, and as the
war in Ukraine has demonstrated they
are perfectly valid also in this century, Susan Lilleväli, undersecretary for defense readiness
at the Estonian Defense Ministry, via 'Newsweek'.
'Newsweek' reports that prototypes for the bunkers
are currently being constructed, with testing set to
commence this year and installation beginning in 2025
