The Baltic Way or Baltic Chain (also Chain of Freedom,[1] Estonian: Balti kett, Latvian: Baltijas ceļš, Lithuanian: Baltijos kelias, Russian: Балтийский путь) was a peaceful political demonstration that occurred on August 23, 1989. Approximately two million people joined their hands to form a human chain spanning over 600 kilometres (370 mi) across the three Baltic states -- Estonian SSR, Latvian SSR, and Lithuanian SSR, republics of the Soviet Union.

//EST//
Balti kett oli 23. augustil 1989 nõukogude võimu mõjutamiseks ja vabadustahte demonstreerimiseks Leedu Sąjūdise, Läti Tautas Fronte ja Eesti Rahvarinde ning Balti Nõukogu algatatud massiüritus, mis kujutas endast läbi kolme Balti riigi Tallinnast Vilniuseni kulgevat katkematut inimketti. Balti keti toimumise ajaks valiti Molotovi-Ribbentropi pakti sõlmimise 50. aastapäev, et demonstreerida oma hoiakut selle pakti suhtes.
Balti ketis osalenud inimeste hulka on hinnatud 2 miljonile. Balti kett äratas maailmas suurt tähelepanu ja aitas kaasa Balti riikide iseseisvustaotluste teadvustamisele.
26. augustil 1989 tegi NLKP Keskkomitee teravas toonis avalduse "Olukorrast Nõukogude Balti vabariikides", milles toimunut kritiseeriti.[1]
Kuuesajal kilomeetril ligi kaht miljonit käsikäes seisvat inimest ühendanud aktsioon oli Guinnessi rekordite raamatus kuni 2004. aastani.[2]
2004. aastal andis Eesti Entsüklopeediakirjastus välja Lembit Koigi kirjutatud 111-leheküljelise raamatu "Balti kett".

The Baltic Way or Baltic Chain (also Chain of Freedom,Estonian: Balti kett, Latvian: Baltijas ceļš, Lithuanian: Baltijos kelias, Russian: Балтийский путь) was a peaceful political demonstration that occurred on August 23, 1989. Approximately two million people joined their hands to form a human chain spanning over 600 kilometres (370 mi) across the three Baltic states – Estonian SSR, Latvian SSR, and Lithuanian SSR, republics of the Soviet Union. It marked the 50th anniversary of the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact between the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany. The pact and its secret protocols divided Eastern Europe into spheres of influence and led to the occupation of the Baltic states in 1940. The event was organised by Baltic pro-independence movements: Rahvarinne of Estonia, the Popular Front of Latvia, and Sąjūdis of Lithuania. The protest was designed to draw global attention by demonstrating a popular desire for independence for each of the entities. It also illustrated solidarity among the three nations. It has been described as an effective publicity campaign, and an emotionally captivating and visually stunning scene. The event presented an opportunity for the Baltic activists to publicise the illegal Soviet occupation and position the question of Baltic independence not as a political matter, but as a moral issue. The Soviet authorities in Moscow responded to the event with intense rhetoric, but failed to take any constructive actions that could bridge the widening gap between the Baltic states and the Soviet Union. Within six months of the protest, Lithuania became the first of the Republics of the Soviet Union to declare independence.
