Media: Possible exclusion of the Baltic states from NATO?

The analyst warned of one of the possible scenarios after the Russian President Vladimir Putin requested the withdrawal of foreign troops from the territory of NATO member states in Eastern Europe, as well as the interruption of further expansion of the Alliance to the east, reports "Sputnik".

Pine did not rule out that events could force the United States to exclude Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia from NATO.

Regardless of the fact that the White House called the demands of the Russian side inadmissible, there is a possibility that Washington will decide on such a step, guided by its own national interests.

As a reminder, on Thursday, Russian President Vladimir Putin and U.S. leader Joseph Biden talked on the phone for 50 minutes.

Topics of discussion were the upcoming Russia-NATO summit scheduled for January 10, the session of the Russia-NATO Council and the meeting within the OSCE.
