Norway, a NATO member that shares a border with Russia in the Arctic, will raise its military readiness, its prime minister says, stressing however that no direct threat had been detected.
“The military will as of tomorrow raise its preparedness in Norway,” Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store tells reporters.
“We currently have no reason to believe that Russia wants to involve Norway or any other country directly into the war, but the war in Ukraine means it is necessary for all NATO countries to be increasingly on their guard,” he added.
