The three Baltic States and Poland have agreed to work together to jointly protect their critical energy infrastructure, newspaper Postimees reports.
A memorandum signed between the four countries on June 16 established a cross-border and inter-agency working group.
The document outlines key areas of cooperation, such as information sharing, joint exercises and exchange of best practices, as well as listing the countries’ key actions and strategies for the next 10 years.

That’s why it is crucial that our countries take a harmonized approach to incident prevention, response and recovery,” said Minister of Energy and the Environment Andres Sutt (Reform.) (ERR)
