With war raging in Ukraine, the sabotage of undersea infrastructure in the Baltic Sea, and increasingly aggressive nuclear rhetoric from Russia, many countries in the region are giving their citizens advice on how to prepare for a crisis, emergency or war.
The Baltic states – Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, which share borders with Russia, – have regularly updated public information over the past decade. This partly stems from historical experiences of Soviet occupation, and fears of something similar happening again.
On the other side of the Baltic Sea, emergency preparedness advice has also been updated this year in Denmark and Norway.
