The Russian Defense Ministry has previously said that the Russian Navy would conduct exercises in January and February involving over 140 ships and over 10,000 military troops.

The exercises will take place in the seas that border Russian territory as well as operationally significant portions of the worldwide ocean. Separate maneuvers will take place in the Mediterranean, North, and Okhotsk seas, as well as the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans' northeastern regions.

On January 22, 2020, Russia conducted naval drills in the Baltic Sea to deter a hypothetical attack, as well as exercises to deter an attack by a hypothetical enemy sabotage group on a sensitive facility of the Baltic Fleet's military corps.

The Russian naval exercises take place at a time when Russia's relations with Western countries and the US are strained over Ukraine.
