   RIGA, Dec 6 (Reuters),The European Union and NATO must integrate the Baltic states more quickly to show Russia they are no longer in its sphere of influence, Latvian Foreign Minister Andris Berzinsh said on Monday. "The states of the EU and NATO must send a clear message on the full integration of the Baltic states once and for all," Berzinsh told a conference on the European Union. This message would ease the Baltic states' relations with Moscow "and would help Russians themselves - to understand what the future is bringing, and allow Russians to prepare for the next challenges," he said. He urged both the EU and NATO to speed up expansion but said neither should compromise its admission standards. Berzinsh also told the conference, on the EU's vaguely defined Northern Dimension initiative aimed at boosting cooperation between the bloc's northernmost states and Russia, that Moscow's Chechen war "had put European and Russian value systems on a collision course."
