Russia blames 'hostile' Baltic countries for severing of ties
Russia accused Baltic countries on Sunday of conduct that led to them severing their relations with Moscow and threatened to respond with asymmetric measures.
The Kremlin blamed the 'hostility' of Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia for the severing of ties.
'Because of the openly hostile line of Vilnius, Riga and Tallinn, all interstate, interdepartmental, regional and sectoral ties with Russia have been severed,' Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova told the RIA state news agency.
