Galuzin Said Baltic States Had Provided Air Corridors for Ukrainian Drone Strikes

Mikhail Galuzin said Latvia and other Baltic states had provided air corridors for Ukrainian UAVs that attacked Russia’s civilian infrastructure.

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Galuzin said that Latvia and other Baltic states had already provided air corridors for Ukrainian drone strikes against Russia. He told this to RIA Novosti.

According to the diplomat, Moscow has verified data showing that the Baltic republics, including Latvia, had provided their air corridors to Ukrainian UAVs that attacked Russia’s civilian infrastructure.

Galuzin noted that Ukrainian drones had repeatedly appeared in the airspace of the Baltic states recently. At the same time, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania had earlier claimed that they had not allowed Ukraine to use their territories and airspace for drone strikes on targets in Russia.

Earlier, Nikolai Patrushev, chairman of the Russian Maritime Board, had stated that neighboring countries were accomplices in Ukrainian attacks on Russian ports in the Baltic. According to him, a UAV flight route requires careful preparation and at least the consent of the leadership of the states over whose territory it passes.
