Polish soldiers were seen deploying a razor wire fence on Poland's border with Russian exclave Kaliningrad. The move follows an announcement by the country's Defence Minister.

Why is Poland sealing its border with Russian exclave Kaliningrad?

<p>Poland's defence minister on Wednesday (November 3) said that orders have been given to the authorities to construct a razor-wire fence on its border with Russian exclave Kaliningrad. The report about the construction of a wall come amid concerns that the exclave might become a channel for illegal migration in Poland.</p>

<p>In Kaliningrad, Russia has a significant military presence which is a tension for entire Europe, especially amid the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war. The exclave is located on the Baltic coast between Poland and Lithuania. It is separated from Belarus by a border corridor.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Mariusz Blaszczak, the defence minister of the country, said at a news conference that the construction of the temporary 2.5-metre high and three-metre deep barrier will start immediately. He also added that it will be similar to the border that Poland set up along with Belarus last year.&nbsp;</p>

The deployment into the Kaliningrad enclave bordering Poland and Lithuania 'will increase tensions in the region', said Lithuanian FM
