Successful Practices from Lithuania

Prehistory of the Russian war in Ukraine

In the last few months in the world media, the Russian war

in Ukraine became the epicentre of discussions. Russia

before the beginning of the war was escalating its troops on

the Ukrainian border in Belarus, recalled its diplomats from

Kyiv, and launched the construction of hospitals in Luhansk

and Donetsk. V. Putin was preparing for the war months in

advance and proclaimed the ultimatum for the West to not

involve itself in any actions on behalf of Ukraine.

Why is Lithuania concerned?

Lithuania was affected more by the war in Ukraine than

other countries for several reasons:

1. Ukraine is a neighbour of Lithuania, separated only by

Belarus (see map below). As a result, e.g. In the event of

a nuclear war, Lithuania be in danger

2. Lithuania, like Ukraine, has common neighbours - Belarus

and Russia. For this reason, many see the same threat of

war in Lithuania (Putin's troops could also occupy

Lithuania from Belarus or the Kaliningrad region).

Lithuanians fear that with the fall of Ukraine, Lithuania

could become the next target, therefore Lithuanians are

interested in helping Ukraine.

3. Ukrainians that live in Lithuania are concerned

4. Back in history, Lithuania has also experienced Russian

aggression and Soviet Union occupation, therefore

Lithuanians can relate to what Ukrainians are

experiencing right now.
