MOSCOW. Nov 30 (Interfax-AVN) - The number of conflict situations involving NATO fighters in the Baltic Sea airspace has practically been reduced to zero thanks to the agreements with Finland, Latvia, and Estonia, Russian National Defense Management Center head Mikhail Mizintsev said on Friday.
"The implementation of those agreements has reduced the number of conflict situations in the Baltic Sea airspace, including those involving NATO fighters, practically to zero and generally increased the security of flights in the Baltic region," Mizintsev said at an interagency cooperation conference.
