Planned Russian military exercises near Baltic in September sow NATO worries

Western military commanders are concerned that large-scale Russian military exercises near the Baltic states in September pose heightened risks for a miscalculation that could trigger a crisis, allied officials said, according to a report from Dow Jones Newswires made available to EFE on Tuesday.


The Russian exercises, which Western officials estimate will involve nearly 100,000 troops, will take place at the same time as military drills by Western forces in Sweden and be the first to roll out after the new North Atlantic Treaty Organization force in the region reaches full strength.
