NATO has ramped up its naval presence in the Baltic and Black Seas, Russia’s envoy to the Western defense alliance said on Friday.
“We have registered a notable increase in the number of reconnaissance flights along our borders. What we now see is a permanent naval presence by NATO naval groups in the Baltic and Black Seas, which is seriously undermining European security,” Alexander Grushko said during a Moscow-Brussels teleconference organized by Russia Today.

On September 30, Russia launched its Air Force anti-terror operation in Syria at the request of President Bashar Assad’s government.
