A former CIA chief has issued a warning that Lithuania could be the next European country to face Russian aggression if Russia succeeds in Ukraine. He highlighted that the United States was slow in providing support to Ukraine, which allowed Russia to continue its advance.
According to the former intelligence head, Russia’s ambition for expanding its territory remains strong, and Lithuania, being geographically close to Russia, is particularly vulnerable. This has raised concerns among security experts about the stability of the region.
The former CIA official also pointed out that the Western countries are divided on the best approach to handle Russian President Vladimir Putin’s aggressive strategies. This division complicates the efforts to create a united front against further Russian expansion in Europe.
With Lithuania as a possible next target after Ukraine, NATO and European Union member states are urged to strengthen their defense and diplomatic strategies to prevent further conflict.
Key points to consider:
- Russia’s continued territorial ambitions in Eastern Europe.
- Lithuania’s geographic proximity increases its vulnerability.
- The West’s slow response in aiding Ukraine potentially emboldens Russia.
- Division among Western countries hampers a united approach to Russian aggression.
- Calls for strengthened defense and diplomacy from NATO and the EU.
