Political scientist Mika Aaltola believes that the flight of an American B-52 bomber over the Gulf of Finland near the Russian island of Gogland is a “signal of counter-containment”, but Finnish experts have assessed this situation differently .

The flight of the American B-52 aircraft in the sky over the Gulf of Finland is a clear signal. The Gulf of Finland is one of the most strategically important regions in Europe, where Russia has intensified its activities, – quotes the Finnish edition Aaltol of Uusi Suomi.

At the same time, according to Finnish data, after the annexation of Crimea to Russia, the country became more active on the island of Gogland in the eastern part of the Gulf of Finland. There, the Russian army can establish military bases where helicopters will be located. It should be noted that Major General Harry Ohra-aho believes that this territory has no strategic importance and that Western missiles will be able to destroy the base of the Russian armed forces on these islands.
