Kremlin Warns Lithuania Against Lifting Nuclear Arms Ban
Original: Kremlin Warns Lithuania Lifting Nuclear Arms Ban Risks Escalation
The Kremlin has warned that Lithuania lifting its ban on nuclear weapons could lead to escalation, amid debate in Vilnius over whether to allow nuclear arms on its territory as NATO tensions with Russia continue. Moscow framed any such move as a dangerous provocation. The warning adds to already strained relations between Russia and Lithuania, a NATO and EU member bordering Kaliningrad.
Why now: Ongoing Russia-NATO tensions make any discussion of nuclear weapons deployment in frontline states highly sensitive.
