It's set to be the longest European border stretch between the security alliance and The Russian Federation.

I suspect the fence is simply to assert an undisputed border, which is a requirement of joining NATO.

Several off-topic posts dragging the US border wall into the OP have been removed.  Please stay on the OP Topic.
