Kaliningrad

He also emphasized that Berlin is within range of Russian missiles stationed in the Russian exclave of Kaliningrad.

Let us remind you that yesterday Putin landed in Kaliningrad, a Russian exclave that is sandwiched between two NATO members Poland and Lithuania. Since he came to Kaliningrad from the far east of Siberia, he had to fly about 6,500 km, and at one point NATO raised nine planes because of Putin.

The corridor is located between Belarus and Russia's Kaliningrad region.
"An engineering battalion will soon be formed in Augustw. It is another military unit that we are creating from scratch, and I assure you that it will not be the last," said the minister.

The focus of the exercises was to improve their ability to defend against enemy air attacks.
The exercise involved the surface-to-air missile regiment of the Fleet Air Defense Formation, with teams operating the S-400 Triumph systems practicing response strategies after receiving a warning about an imagined violation of airspace by an "enemy" Su-27 aircraft.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that Polish authorities were taking a "furious attitude on the verge of madness" towards Russia, while Russian senator Alexei Pushkov told Polish officials to learn the lessons of history before they start preparing for war with Russia.
"Poland is preparing for war with Russia? History does not teach the Polish elite anything," Puskov said.

The European Union and Russia have agreed on the transit of goods in the Kaliningrad region, the newspaper "Izvestia" reports, citing high-ranking sources from the Russian side.

"The European Union and Russia have agreed on the transit of goods in the Kaliningrad region. Brussels has provided a document that 'fully satisfies' Moscow," the message said.

Russia will no longer be able to transport vodka through the territory of Lithuania to Kaliningrad.

This is clear from the new restrictions introduced today by Vilnius.

In vain, both Lithuania and the European Union tried to explain to Russia that the blockade, which includes coal, metals, construction materials and advanced technology, is not its independent decision, but the implementation of a joint EU decision on sanctions.

The European Commission, as reported by the "Times", will be asked to "mitigate" the situation after Lithuania blocked the transit of goods to the Russian enclave under EU sanctions after the suggestion from Brussels.

Russia has summoned the European Union's ambassador today in open anger at the suspension on Saturday of the transit of sanctioned goods through Lithuania to the Russian Baltic enclave of Kaliningrad, world news agencies reported.

Russia called the measure an "illegal blockade" and threatened retaliation against Lithuania, Reuters reported.
