Lithuania has installed 'dragon's teeth' on the border with Russia and Belarus

Lithuania has placed anti-tank structures known as 'dragon's teeth' on its border with Belarus and Russia. This decision has been made at several checkpoints that are currently not operational, the Lithuanian army reports, informing that these measures are not related to military exercises codenamed 'Zapad'.

“This is a small part of a long-term mobility countering plan that reduces and limits the possibilities of military equipment from Belarus and Russia physically entering Lithuanian territory,” the agency noted.

In addition, Lithuania has appealed to the European Union for increased pressure on Russia and more support for Ukraine. Lithuanian Foreign Minister Kęstutis Budrys emphasized the need for new, 19th sanctions against Russia.

This initiative by Lithuania highlights the growing tension in the region, given the threats from neighboring states. The installation of 'dragon's teeth' is part of a broader security strategy aimed at strengthening its borders and preventing possible military aggressions. Lithuania is also actively working on setting up international support to address the challenges facing Europe amid modern threats. It remains to be seen how this will affect regional relations and the implementation of new sanctions against Russia.
