Summary

Headline: Russia to Unilaterally Adjust Baltic Borders With Finland and Lithuania

Description

According to a document prepared by the Russian Defense Ministry, Russia intends to unilaterally move its border with Lithuania and Finland in the Baltic Sea. This includes declaring parts of the water area in the east of the Gulf of Finland, as well as revising coordinates near several Baltic islands and coastal cities, both at the Finnish and Lithuanian borders. Areas affected include Baltiysk and Zelenogradsk (Kaliningrad), various Finnish islands (Jähi, Sommers, Holland, Rodsher, Maly Tyuters, Vigrund, Narva River entrance), and on the Lithuanian border, the Curonian Spit and the Cape Taran region. The adjustment appears as a unilateral border revision.
