In recent weeks, Pentagon representatives have approached several NATO countries, in particular the Baltic countries, with a request to soften their rhetoric regarding the threat from Russia.

The Pentagon argued that some statements by European leaders and officials undermine the security of the continent.

According to agency sources, the countries that received the calls to restrain public statements include Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia.

At the same time, it is not known whether these messages, transmitted during bilateral meetings, were conveyed to the governments of other European countries.
