A former CIA chief has warned that Lithuania could be the next target for a Russian attack if Russia succeeds in Ukraine. This warning comes amid growing concerns that Russia’s territorial ambitions are not yet satisfied and may extend further into Europe.
The ex-intelligence official criticized the U.S. for its slow assistance to Ukraine, suggesting that this delay could have influenced the current dynamics of the conflict. He also noted significant disagreement among Western countries on how to best address Russian President Vladimir Putin’s aggression. While some advocate for a firmer stance, others support more cautious diplomacy.
Why Lithuania?
Lithuania is considered a likely target due to several factors:
- Geographical proximity to Russia and Ukraine
- Its membership in both NATO and the European Union
- Its political stance opposing Russia
This warning has alarmed European security circles and highlighted the broader implications of the ongoing war in Ukraine.
Current Situation
The situation remains fluid, with experts vigilantly monitoring Russia’s movements and the international community’s responses. The warning emphasizes the persistent tension and risks faced by Eastern European nations amid the conflict.
