Lithuania's foreign minister has urged a tougher response to Russia’s build-up of weapons on the border of the EU and its "military hooliganism" in the Baltic Sea, according to The Times.
In an interview with The Times, Linas Linkevicius pointed to the concentration of advanced weaponry in the Kaliningrad exclave — a sliver of land between Poland and Lithuania, both NATO members — and the Kremlin’s continuing war in eastern Ukraine.
