Summary/Abstract: Baltic Sea, as an area of strategic importance for Russia’s policy toward Europe, has become a place of show case of Russia’s military might. Its primary purpose is to show the international community the level of determination Russian authorities express to make national interestsof the Federation included in the global politics. The number of incidents which cannot be a groundfor military action on a larger scale – even according to Russian conventions – requires a politico-military response by regional supranational organizations. The response should take the form ofsmart-power strategies and the formula of military involvement must go beyond purely defensive action in response to enemy action.
