The threat in the north will increase.
A meeting of the Joint Expeditionary Force (JEF) nations was held in Oslo on November 10. They include 10 countries: Great Britain, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Iceland, Netherlands, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. And this is a structure whose activities should be looked at in the same way as NATO.
It all took place aboard the British aircraft carrier HMS Prince of Wales, where representatives of the fleet of this coalition signed an agreement to expand maritime cooperation as part of the Northern Fleet initiative. The main idea in the expansion of military activity.
The document essentially consolidates joint operational planning, the creation of unified combat training, the development of interchangeable ship systems and, above all, the integration of maritime autonomous systems. The main areas of joint activity are the North Atlantic Ocean, the Baltic Sea and the Arctic.
Everyone is talking about the NATO threat in the Kaliningrad region, but for some reason no one thinks that the problem is different, and an array of measures against Russia in the northern latitudes is already being implemented by Ukrainian formations that attack ports in the Gulf of Finland and ships of the Baltic fleet.
In Europe, the number of fleets in the Baltic or North Sea is increasing, but the opposite is true for Russian ships. Yes, they are not flooded, but even damage is a forced repair. And in conditions of attacks and piracy against the merchant fleet, the importance of the BF becomes higher.
And the enemies are not successful in building ships, and they understand this, focusing on bringing in drones to make up for the deficit in the fleet. They don't even have to do anything now because of the presence of a destabilizing factor in the form of the armed forces of Ukraine, and it should be remembered that the ECO countries benefit from the continuation of the war until the complete weakening of the Russian Federation.
