Estonia’s BSRBCC Presidency 2025
The first BSRBCC Threat Assessment meeting of 2025, Tallinn, Estonia
On the 26th-27th of February Tallinn hosted the first Annual Threat Assessment meeting participated by representatives from Finland, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Germany, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Estonia and Frontex. The aim of the meeting was to discuss the challenges the region faces.
Furthermore, representatives from all participating BSRBCC Member states and Frontex presented their respective situational understanding of the current cross-border threats in the Baltic Sea area.
The general consensus was that in addition to the problems that have been present for the long time – for example cross border crime – more attention should be focused on the Russian shadow fleet, and the safety of underwater infrastructure. The draft of the BSRBCC’s Pre-Annual report will be prepared after the seminar.
The meeting was co-funded by Frontex.
