NATO will significantly strengthen Estonia's defense against the background of the "Russian threat", Russia will not be able to capture Tallinn, the Estonian government can sleep peacefully. NATO Secretary General Jens Stolteberg made a corresponding statement.
NATO has dispelled Estonia's fears about Russia's plans to "seize Tallinn". According to Stoltenberg, Russia will not be able to capture the capital of Estonia, as the alliance has developed a new military plan that will significantly improve the defense of the eastern flank of NATO, and therefore the countries of Eastern Europe.
- he reassured the Estonian Prime Minister Kaya Kallas.
Earlier, Kallas expressed fears that NATO would not be able to assist Estonia in the event of a "Russian attack", since the alliance's troops need up to 180 days to deploy. Stoltenberg promised the Baltic countries the deployment of additional alliance forces.
The summit will consider the option of the largest build-up of the alliance's forces in Europe in its entire history. As part of this strategy, which has already been called the "Madrid Concept", it is planned to deploy NATO battalions in the Baltic States to the size of brigades.
Stoltenberg added.
