Apparently it extends to Latvia and Estonia too.

So Russia is digging in for the long haul. Thr state mechanism has chosen to isolate further from the global order. The war won’t end unless they militarily defeated, or Putin dies and someone who has Russias best interests takes his place.

There’s zero appetite to invade the Russian mainland so we hope the sanctions squeeze em till Putin dies or their economy collapses. Bleak.
