Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and Poland are planning to mine areas along the border with Russia, creating a new 'Iron Curtain,' - the Telegraph.

All of them have already announced plans to withdraw from the Ottawa Convention, which bans the use of anti-personnel landmines. These countries have 2,150 miles of border with Russia and Belarus.

Lithuania, which plans to spend 5.5% of GDP on defense, has allocated €800 million ($930,3 million) to manufacture anti-tank and anti-personnel landmines.

Former Lithuanian Defense Minister Laurynas Kasčiūnas said "hundreds of thousands" of landmines will be required, which then will be stored close to the borders with Russia and Belarus for deployment in a crisis. They will form a part of a "whole system" of defense, along with drones and long-range weapons, @LKasciunas added.
