Grybauskaite reminded about the militarization of the Kaliningrad region.
In particular, the head of the Lithuanian state reminded that the Baltic States and Poland – “the Eastern frontier of NATO.” The very proximity to Russia and Belarus – the threat to him. Plus the militarization of the Kaliningrad region, plus use of the territory of Belarus for “various experiments and aggressive games against the West.”
For “aggressive games” and challenges Grybauskaite took the Belarusian-Russian манtвры “West-2017”. In Lithuania mentioned earlier, they can serve as a вооружtнного eve of the invasion and subsequent occupation.
In this regard, said the Lithuanian Supreme Commander, the Baltic States and Poland should jointly strengthen the defense of their States and, primarily, air defense (PVO). Should be possible to saturate the “East wing” air defense systems and other weapons. This will cool the ardor of the aggressors and sobered them.
With regard to plans cover, NATO, according to Grybauskaite, must become more flexible in the context of decision-making, to ensure the unblocking of the Baltic States in the case of capturing so-called “Suvalki corridor”.
About these and other calls to Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and Poland have to speak at the summit of leaders of the countries-members of NATO in the summer of 2018, in order to make significant progress in strengthening security, said Grybauskaite.
