In the midst of Russia’s ongoing conflict with Ukraine, the Baltic countries of Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia are taking steps to strengthen their defense capabilities against the potential threat of war on their own soil. One of these measures includes the construction of the Baltic Defense Line, a system designed to deter a potential Russian attack.
Recently, DW correspondent Juri Rescheto visited the Latvian border town of Karsava to get a firsthand look at how the region is bolstering its defenses. The Baltic Defense Line is a crucial component of these efforts, aimed at fortifying the borders and preventing any potential aggression.
The Baltic countries have long been wary of Russia’s actions and have been working diligently to enhance their defense capabilities in response. These measures are vital for ensuring the security and sovereignty of the Baltic region in the face of potential threats.
It is clear that the Baltic countries are taking proactive steps to protect themselves and strengthen their defenses in the face of escalating tensions. The construction of the Baltic Defense Line is just one example of their commitment to safeguarding their borders and deterring any potential threats.

Stay strong and give no quarter Baltic Bros! Ruzzians will use any chance to mess with their old "colonies", which Putin seems to be longing to restore with Ukraine being the first step.

Western Paranoia 😂😂😂
How does Liechtenstein keep threats at bay? Does it ban German language, foster negative relations with its neighbours and houses, say, Chinese military bases and missiles?
Russia's logic is something like "we have no inside toilet but we have and empire and we love "they are afraid of us sense of feeling".
Good luck with your tiny populations.
Baltic countries are very funny so they think Russia 🇷🇺 will invade them omg this is an evil 😈 taught from them, Russia is at peace with all countries so you people should stop your unnecessary comments
NATO expansion to the borders of Russia was a big mistake, which can eventually trigger the WW3.
How telling that people interviewed who said that Defensive line on the boarder is unneeded had Russian accents
I think everybody is seeing that ukraine is about to completely fall
Ahh, the russian accent of those 2 that doubt the necessity of strenghtening the borders 😂
I cant tell u for a fact russia dont want anything to do with the baltics..😂
"Red scare 2"
Nobody in Europe likes Russia,except for Belarus.Her neighbors hate Russia.😂😂😂
Poor russians screaming in agony day after day. 🙂
im from Latvia and this defense and fear mongering is just nonsense, like tree baltic small countries gonna fight with russia while nato gonna discuss if then gonna send their troops to die in this territory, maybe start diplomacy and somehow start talking, what are these politicians and defense ministry are for?
For as long as you provoke Russia, always know one day you gonna pay for it. Keep supporting Ukraine thinking it will bring security to Baltic. Who brought these boundaries first? Russia need security and that goal will be achieved with all means.
Beginning of the new Iron Curtain.
We know now what Russia is all about.😢 Mister putin darkness upon his country,,, Very, very dark cloudy, Russia. I feel sorry for the people. Mr. Putin has to go and make LA petin. Eat pudding, Mr. Petite.

People on the streets are dumb as always. Russia has no interest in Latvia? Oh yeah, Russia has never shown any interest in warm-water ports on the Baltic shores. Russia has never ever shown any interest in conquering us, even when they conquered us -.-
Ura💪💪🇷🇺🇷🇺🎉
This three countries are a joke😂😂😂
When all they need to do is to think?
They are just jealous and greedy..Give a land, power and resources that has Russia to Lithuania and they would start the world war tommorow.
Considering Russia's violent hatred for all its neighbors this is a wise decision
