The Russian Ministry of Defense announced on Monday that the anti-submarine ship “Vice Admiral Kulakov” has entered the Barents Sea. This is happening at the same time as the NATO exercise Nordic Response is taking place in Finnmark. Jonny Karlsen, spokesperson at the Norwegian Armed Forces’ operational headquarters, says the Norwegian Armed Forces are keeping a close eye on the nearby areas. – As long as they follow international laws and regulations, there is no problem with them sailing in international waters. Karlsen says the news will not affect the NATO exercise, and that they will continue as before. It was the Defense Forum that reported on the case first.
