Lithuania Removes Constitutional Ban on Nuclear Weapons
⚛️ VILNIUS — Lithuania lifting its nuclear ban while Russia probes NATO's eastern flank. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: Lithuania's ban dated to Soviet-era demilitarization. Removing it signals NATO nuclear-sharing eligibility, not an independent arsenal. With Poland scrambled and CENTCOM committed to Hormuz, Baltic states are repositioning for extended US absence. Kaliningrad's tactical nukes make this more than symbolic — it's a deterrence posture shift with no US bandwidth to anchor it.
