Kaliningrad: the Russian exclave behind Putin's nuclear threat

Original: Kaliningrad, the Russian militarized exclave surrounded by NATO that triggered Putin’s nuclear threat

Kaliningrad, Russia's heavily militarized exclave on the Baltic Sea bordered entirely by NATO members Poland and Lithuania, is drawing renewed attention after Putin issued a nuclear threat connected to the territory. The isolated region, which Moscow stripped from Germany in 1945, hosts significant missile forces and sits at the heart of tensions between Russia and the Western alliance, making it a focal point of the current standoff.

Why now: Putin's nuclear threat tied to Kaliningrad has put the strategic exclave back at the center of Russia-NATO tensions.
