Kremlin warns Lithuania over lifting nuclear arms ban
Original: Kremlin warns Lithuania that its move to lift a nuclear arms ban risks further escalation
The Kremlin has warned Lithuania that its move to lift a ban on nuclear weapons could risk further escalation, according to Reuters. The warning comes amid already heightened tensions between Moscow and NATO members on its borders, and any discussion of nuclear weapons deployments in the Baltic region is likely to draw strong Russian objections.
Why now: Lithuania's nuclear policy shift touches on one of Russia's most sensitive security red lines amid the ongoing confrontation with NATO.
