Lithuania is actively involved in NATO defense cooperation, hosting German troops and participating in joint military exercises with Poland and France near the Belarusian border. The country has expressed concerns over potential Russian provocations in the Baltic region and has taken steps toward constitutional reform to allow for the possible deployment of nuclear deterrence assets from NATO. Lithuania's leadership has also highlighted divisions within the EU regarding sanctions against Russia, citing economic interests as a barrier to unified action.
