In a letter to its partners, the Council of Ministers apologises for any inconvenience caused by activities being called off. The launch of the Nordic Council of Ministers' NGO programme for the Baltic Sea region is also on hold until the situation has been clarified.
The future of operations at the office will be determined based on the outcome of negotiations between the Russian Government and the Nordic Council of Ministers.
Most recent updates of the situation are available at the official website of Nordic co-operation.
