Lithuania Moves to Lift Constitutional Ban on Hosting Nuclear Weapons
Fifty Lithuanian MPs have submitted an amendment to repeal the constitutional ban on hosting nuclear weapons. President Gitanas Nauseda stated the change is necessary due to worsening geopolitical security, though no immediate plans exist to station such weapons. The move follows similar actions by Finland and aligns with European nuclear deterrence discussions involving France and potential U.S. deployments across NATO countries.
