On a high note

The Russian ambassador in Vilnius Alexander Udaltsov was awarded a diplomatic note with an expression of concern about Russia's actions in the exceptional economic zone of Lithuania in the Baltic Sea. This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the country.

"On October 10, Russian warships ordered the Court of Courts in the exclusive economic zone of Lithuania. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs calls on the Russian Federation to consistently comply with international law, the principles of good neighborliness and ensure that such incidents are not repeated," the report said.

In addition, the Russian ambassador was repeatedly expressed in Lithuania about the deployment of Iskander-M missiles in the Kaliningrad region, as well as the flights of Russian aircraft over the Baltic Sea. "NATO fighters only rose 20 times on October 6-9 to identify and conduct Russian aircraft flying next to NATO airspace," the Foreign Ministry noted.

Last May, Lithuania already protested in connection with the repeated actions of the Russian Navy in the exclusive economic zone of the country. Then, during the next military exercises of the Baltic Fleet, Russian ships demanded four times from civilian ships to change the course.

On October 7, the media reported the transportation to the Kaliningrad Region on the Ambal vessel of the Iskander-M missile systems , which could carry a nuclear charge. Sources in American intelligence confirmed the transfer of missiles.

The next representative of the Russian Ministry of Defense, Igor Konashenkov, confirmed reports about the transportation of Iskander. At the same time, the general said that one of the systems was specially "put up under the flying American satellite." “Nobody did a big secret from the transportation of the complex on the Ambal dry truck. I will say more: one“ Iskander ”was specially put up even before loading to“ Ambal ”to the flying American intelligence officer to clarify the work parameter of this spacecraft,” the representative of the Ministry of Defense said.

Konashenkov noted that the Iskander repeatedly transferred to the Kaliningrad region in the past, and stated that this would happen in the future. "As part of the combat training plan, the missile troops divided the year -round training, overcoming significant distances in the Russian Federation in various ways: air, sea and their own strokes," the general said.
