Since the beginning of Vladimir Putin's rule in Russia 20 years ago, Russia has
lost much of the leverage that it previously enjoyed in the Baltics. On the one
hand, Russia has antagonized Baltic states through its wars in Georgia and
Ukraine, on the other hand, deep integration in the EU and NATO has pulled the
Baltic states from the Russian zone of influence. This article discusses the
gradual decrease of Russia's influence in the Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania while
considering the increased NATO presence in the region, Baltic energy security,
and Baltic Russian-speaking communities.
