*[Enwl-eng] Baltic region militarisation document

[ENWLine]

Dear signatories of the Baltic Sea Call!

As attachment you will find an extremely informative text about the dangerous situation in our region; massive militarisation including nuclear scenarios.

The text is written by Dr. Horst Leps from Hamburg, who has also signed the Baltic Sea Call.

Pls do not hesitate to contact him for further information: horstleps(at)gmx.de

We sincerely hope that you can make use of this information in our urgent task to stop further escalation and great scale irreparable damage. Together we must find a way to  reach the Baltic region politicians with our message!

At the end of the attached document there are some excellent ideas that we could use in our work. Some examples:

- Demands aiming at a disengagement zone in the Baltic Sea, the Baltic States and the neighboring Finnish, Polish, German, Russian and Belarusian areas should be raised.

- A regional security cooperation, agreed upon at high level, regardless of all political contradictions and differences of opinion, should be set up.

- A high-level conference, sponsored by the Heads of States or Governments, within the OSCE frameweork, should be considered, a conference, that without preconditions and in different formats and at different levels, gives advice in regard to the aim of revitalizing the European security architecture, 

- A sub-regional stability regime for the Baltic region should be built up with the task to limit military capabilities for a surprise attack or for a large-scale aggression after a comprehensive deployment has taken place, and to make military activities predictable.

- An area should be created in which both sides must de-escalate. 

All ideas for how we together could bring these and other peace building ideas forward are warmly welcomed.

On behalf of the Baltic Sea initiative group
