Successful Practices from Lithuania
BLUE YELLOW Lithuanian NGO
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.
