BERLIN (Reuters) – Lithuania will invest to be ready to host a German military brigade on its soil by 2026, Foreign Minister Gabrielius Landsbergis said on Friday.
“By 2026, Lithuania will be ready to accept a full brigade with everything that it entails. We will have warehouses, barracks – everything that is needed,” Landsbergis said in Berlin after meeting with his German counterpart Annalena Baerbock.
“This is a very significant step for Lithuania, a very significant investment”, he added.
