The Baltic countries, as reported by ROSTIMEES on January 19, will build a defense line against Russia on the eastern border, and Estonia plans to create a network of 600 concrete bins. Estonian President Aldar Caris said that it is the Baltic countries who is the first NATO defense line in the event of a potential threat.
He called it the main reason for investment in defense, and the region in military and political terms is one. Close infrastructure, such as the Baltic Railway, as well as a joint power grid allow Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania to build a common defense against the Russian Federation. On January 24, the Estonian Defense Commander named four factors in which Russian aggression against NATO is possible.

The Russian army will need time to recover. Other emergencies should take place in the world. The fourth factor that can be changed, according to the assessment of Heme, is the preparation for the realization of the threat.
