War with Russia on NATO’s northern flank no longer abstract: “They’re already building bunkers there”. Russia recently had refugees brought to the border with Finland in order to put the country under pressure.

In the Baltic states they are preparing for concrete attacks. “Bunkers and shelters are already being built there so that as many people as possible can be brought to safety in the event of an attack,” says Tobias Etzold. Russian President Vladimir Putin will give his State of the Union address on Thursday.
