Nauseda made a new proposal

According to the Lithuanian leader, he carefully analyzed the incidents of recent days and disruptions in airport operations.

Nauseda publicly confirmed that he views this as a hybrid attack on his own country, to which it is extremely important to respond in both symmetric and asymmetric ways.

Against this background, he said that the government should soon propose ways to respond.

Among the options that should be considered are a prolonged closure of the border with Belarus and restrictions on transit to Kaliningrad.

As mentioned earlier, on the night of October 26, Lithuania decided to close checkpoints on the border with Belarus.

Moreover, the operation of Vilnius Airport was suspended.

On the evening of October 24, Lithuania closed its two largest airports and also temporarily suspended border crossings with Belarus due to weather conditions.
