". – The Commission shares the view that if nuclear weapons were deployed in the Russian enclave of Kaliningrad this would have very serious repercussions for cooperation in the Baltic Sea area, particularly for our northern dimension policies. It would also run against Russia's stated policy in the region.
During the visit which we made in February to Moscow and Kaliningrad – I went there with the Presidency, with Foreign Minister Anna Lindh – the issue was raised. The Russian side firmly denied the allegations which had been published in the media. The Russian side gave assurances that there were no plans regarding the deployment of nuclear weapons in Kaliningrad. I have seen the press and broadcast reports to which the honourable Member draws attention. That is why we raised the issue with the Russian side, but I repeat the assurances which they have given us."@en1
