    NATO has launched massive exercises with former Soviet republics in
    the Baltic states, the Interfax news agency reported Monday.

    Forces from the former Soviet republics of Armenia, Georgia, Ukraine,
    Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania are participating in the exercises,
    along with troops from the former Soviet satellite nations of
    Bulgaria, Poland, Croatia and Romania alongside U.S. forces, the press
    service of the Ukrainian Defense Ministry said.

    The servicemen will train how to clean up the aftermath of a natural
    disaster and prevent terrorist acts in the Baltic states, Interfax
    said. They are also developing cooperation between military and
    civilian agencies in the prevention of humanitarian and natural
    disasters.

    Divers will train to expose terrorist groups and de-mine a sea area
    and hydro-technical facilities, the news agency said.
