Lithuania renounces nuclear-free status amid Belarus weapons question
Original: “Was Lithuania asked for permission for nuclear weapons in Belarus?”: Vilnius renounces nuclear-free status
Lithuania has moved to abandon its nuclear-free status, a shift framed in neighbouring coverage by the pointed question of whether Minsk or Moscow sought Vilnius's permission to station nuclear weapons in Belarus. The move reflects growing alarm in Vilnius over Russian tactical nuclear weapons deployed next door and what it means for regional security.
Why now: Russian nuclear weapons in Belarus have raised regional security fears, prompting Lithuania to reconsider its own nuclear policy.
