Against Russian threat, Lithuania will teach children how to build and operate drones
We plan that 15,500 adults and 7,000 children get drone control skills by 2028.
Minister of Lithuania Defense, Dovil Akalien
Lithuanian government plans to spend R $ 20.8 million on specialized equipment. These include a training application, and vision drones for internal and external environments, video control and transmission systems.
Baltic countries fear Russian invasion
Lithuania borders Belarus and fears Russian invasion from attack on Ukraine in February 2022. In July this year, the local government said two Russian drones crossed the Belarus border and entered the country.
Expulsion of Russian diplomat from Estonia yesterday increased tension. According to Foreign Minister of Baltic country, Margus Tsahkna, the expulsion was in response to the “continuous interference” of the Russians in state affairs.
The diplomat in question was directly and actively involved in undermining the constitutional order and the legal system of Estonia. Continuous interference from the Russian embassy in the internal affairs of the Republic of Estonia should end.
