lpv:translated text	"Mr President, in the second half of September this year, Russia and Belarus held military exercises codenamed ‘West’ 2009 and ‘Lake Lagoda’ 2009. It was the largest undertaking of its kind on the western borders of Russia since the end of the Cold War. Assault exercises on a similar scale last took place in 1981, at the height of the Cold War. It is interesting that the ‘West’ 2009 phase started on 18 September, which was almost to the day the 70th anniversary of the Soviet invasion of Poland. Part of the exercises were held at the mouth of the Bay of Gdańsk, and ‘Lake Lagoda’ 2009 is universally thought by experts to represent preparations for a potential attack on the Baltic countries and Finland. Despite openly hostile moves by the Russian Federation, both the European Union and NATO have remained passive. They still have not developed a strategy for defence in the event of an invasion from the east because some of the countries and NATO members consider the question too sensitive politically. In view of the approaching EU-Russia Summit, and also in view of the facts I have mentioned, I have submitted a question on the matter to the Council of the European Union."@en1
