Lithuania plans to amend its Constitution to potentially allow deployment of nuclear weapons on its territory in response to Russian threats, asserting its NATO membership makes it a target. This move aligns with broader regional shifts as countries like Finland and Poland enhance their nuclear defense postures amid Russian aggression and doubts over NATO's collective defense.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You face a security reset as Lithuania moves to lift its nuclear weapons ban to solidify its NATO defense role. Defense and security founders in the region should track this as a new door opens for advanced deterrence and allied infrastructure projects.
