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.
