NATO has ships in the Baltic Sea: "Presence and solidarity"
NATO's warship HNLMS Rotterdam is in place in the Baltic Sea to "show presence and solidarity with the entire alliance". This is confirmed by the military alliance's spokesperson for Aftonbladet.
- The rapid reaction force is always available to carry out defense tasks from exercises to missions, the person says.
At the same time, the Armed Forces has strengthened its presence on Gotland after three Russian landing craft sailed into the Baltic Sea. According to Magnus Christiansson, researcher in military strategy at the Swedish National Defense College, it is not uncommon for NATO presence in the Baltic Sea, but he sees the move as a mark.
