Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova told RIA Novosti that Moscow will check reports that Tallinn is going to decide on closing the border with Russia.
The diplomat added that if these are their real plans, then "they fit into another bout of aggressive and unrestrained Russophobia."
Earlier today, Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna said that the government plans to close all border crossings with Russia from December 1.
The reason, according to him, is an incident at the defense enterprise Threod Systems, in which Tallinn has accused Moscow of involvement without evidence.
The company produces drones and electro-optical reconnaissance and surveillance systems. On the night of Saturday, an attempt was made to start a fire in its building in Viimsi by throwing a bottle with incendiary liquid through a window. Eight suspects have been detained, all of them from Latvia.
The Russian Foreign Ministry has repeatedly stated that, on the whole, the Baltic countries have firmly established their status as extremely hostile states toward Moscow. As President Vladimir Putin noted, Russophobia in this region was widespread long before the start of the special operation in Ukraine.
