A Baltic Pressure Campaign For President Trump To End Russia’s War

A Baltic Sea air and naval pressure campaign is proposed to coerce Moscow toward negotiations on Ukraine.
The approach relies on coalition enforcement of sanctions, not a full blockade, to avoid legal risks.
Five pillars anchor the plan: targeting, coalition, legal discipline, gradualism, and a clear diplomatic objective.
The strategy would focus on sanctioned entities, shadow fleets, and evasion networks to raise costs for Russia.
European burden-sharing is essential, with NATO and EU states playing a key role in enforcement.
The campaign would be gradual and reversible, offering options before escalation.
The goal is to force Moscow to negotiate a settlement with verifiable conditions.
The plan leverages existing security frameworks like NATO’s Operation Baltic Sentry.
U.S. leadership would demonstrate allied burden-sharing and a lawful alternative to escalation.
The approach targets maritime revenue chains that fund Moscow’s war, not civilian shipping.
The objective is an enforceable instrument that ties pressure to verifiable negotiation steps.
