The Baltic Sea is described as a region of heightened military activity and strategic geopolitical tension, marked by incidents such as the sabotage of Nord Stream pipelines in September 2022. It has become a focal point for NATO surveillance missions like Baltic Sentry and Russian countermeasures, including vessel armament and anti-drone defenses. The area also faces environmental challenges, including extreme weather events linked to cyclones originating from its waters.
