Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Russia was ready to take all necessary measures to ensure its security.

"Of course, the concentrated presence of NATO warships - we take into account Bulgaria and Romania, the coastal countries that are members of the alliance - poses, especially in the current situation, an additional threat to Russia," Peskov told reporters.

Peskov's comments were in reference to Kyiv's introduction of a maritime security strategy for Ukraine.

Peskov added that European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen's pledge to create a "real European Defense Union," a common air and cyber defense, demonstrates the mood in Europe for militarization and confrontation, BTA reports.
