Lithuania moves to lift ban on nuclear weapons

Original: Lithuania moves to lift ban on nuclear weapons as ‘Russians do not attack the strong’

Lithuania has moved to lift its constitutional ban on nuclear weapons on its territory, with proponents arguing that 'Russians do not attack the strong'. The move reflects mounting security concerns among Baltic states over Russian aggression and the credibility of NATO deterrence. If adopted, the change could open the door to hosting allied nuclear weapons, a significant shift for a country that enshrined the prohibition after gaining independence from the Soviet Union.

Why now: Fears of Russian aggression and doubts about deterrence are driving debate in NATO's eastern flank countries.
