Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania have officially begun the historic process of disconnecting from Russia’s power grid and integrating with the EU network. The transition started on Saturday, with final synchronization with Europe set for Sunday.

Residents were advised to prepare for potential disruptions, while officials remain on high alert for possible cyber threats. This move marks the end of Baltic energy dependence on Moscow, with leaders calling it a major step toward security.
