Kremlin warns Lithuania over nuclear arms ban reversal
Original: Kremlin warns Lithuania that its move to lift a nuclear arms ban risks further escalation
The Kremlin has warned Lithuania that its decision to lift a ban on nuclear arms risks further escalation in the region. The warning follows Vilnius's move to change its legislation on nuclear weapons, a step Moscow frames as provocative. The exchange adds to already strained relations between Russia and NATO member Lithuania amid the ongoing war in Ukraine.
Why now: Tensions between Russia and NATO-bordering states are high, and any nuclear policy shift carries major escalation fears.
