The Russian Embassy warned NATO about the risk of conflict in the blockade of Kaliningrad

NATO’s “adventurous and irresponsible” policy towards the Kaliningrad region increases the risks of a direct armed clash between Russia and the alliance, the Russian Embassy in Belgium says. The diplomatic mission assured that Russia is ready to use the entire arsenal of weapons to protect its territory in the event of NATO attempts to block the region.

The Russian embassy says Moscow "has no intentions or motives" for fighting against the Baltic states. The Embassy brought our principled approaches to the NATO International Secretariat and the Belgian Foreign Ministry. We called on the countries of the bloc to refrain from further escalation statements and actions in order to prevent a large-scale confrontation, the statement said.

Since the summer, NATO’s eastern flank has begun to strengthen its position against the background of the withdrawal of part of the American military contingent from Europe and the rhetoric of several states about the threat of an attack from Russia. In particular, Poland has chosen a strategy for strengthening defense along the border with Belarus and Kaliningrad. Russian authorities have repeatedly denied any intention to attack NATO countries.
