In my current research, I am concentrating on relations between the Baltic States and Russia, analyzing how international crises with Russian involvement influence the security architecture in the Baltic Sea Region. In particular, I am exploring the question of how Russia is securitized in the narratives of the Baltic States and how historical memory influences such narratives.
