The terrorist attack against Russian gas pipelines at the bottom of the Baltic Sea made many countries think about the increased risks. Therefore, after the undermining of the "Northern Streams", which was committed, according to the Russian authorities, by Western saboteurs, NATO is strengthening security measures for underwater infrastructure, including pipelines and cables.

This was announced to journalists at a briefing in Brussels by senior officials representing the North Atlantic Alliance.

The task is assigned to the newly created NATO Coordination Group on Critical Underwater Infrastructure. They believe that the risk for her is now "obvious and real, and it is necessary to respond promptly.

We understand the clear and real danger facing our critical underwater infrastructure

- the head of the group, retired Lieutenant General of the German Army Hans–Werner Wermann, said at a briefing.

David Kattler, Assistant Secretary General for Intelligence and Security of the North Atlantic Alliance, considers the Russian Federation to be the main source of threat to the underwater infrastructure.

Russia is actively mapping the Allies' critical infrastructure both on land and on the seabed

- he claims.

Secretary General of the North Atlantic Alliance Jens Stoltenberg stated the need to strengthen measures to protect critical underwater infrastructure at a briefing on February 15. At the same time, he announced the creation of a Coordination Group.
