Gabrielius Landsbergis, the former Lithuanian Foreign Minister, has been a vocal advocate for Ukraine's security and NATO membership as the cornerstone of its defense against Russian aggression. Amid ongoing conflicts, he argues that decisive actions are needed from NATO to deter further Kremlin threats. This includes supporting Ukraine with military aid and removing restrictions on its use of Western-supplied weapons. He also urges the international community to avoid peace plans that compromise Ukraine's territorial integrity. Landsbergis insists that Europe must not underestimate the current threats and should maintain robust support for Ukraine, including the potential relocation of UAV production to Lithuania, to ensure sustained pressure on Russia. Coordinated efforts across NATO and EU states are vital for European security.
