This was announced on Wednesday, September 21, by the Minister of Defense of the European State Arvidas Anushauskas on its Twitter. The Lithuanian official noted that the decision to bring the forces of rapid response to a state of increased combat readiness was made on the basis that the mobilization will be carried out, in particular, in the territory of the border with Lithuania of the Kaliningrad region of the Russian Federation.
"The forces of rapid response of Lithuania are put into a state of increased combat readiness to prevent any provocations from Russia," Anushausk wrote. In addition, the Minister noted that the response to the Russian President Vladimir Putin will increase the supply of military equipment to the Armed Forces of Ukraine to confront Russian aggression.
At the same time, Anushauskas suggested that the Kremlin's decision was delayed because the Russian Federation was lack of officers, low troops and weak weapons. "This risky decision can lead to political chaos," said the head of the Lithuanian Ministry of Defense. We will remind, during the appeal to the people on September 21, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced partial mobilization across the country from now.
