Thank you, Europe, for the solidarity after recent airspace violations.

Hybrid attacks require action. We call for broader EU sanctions on Belarus & stronger air defence of the Eastern flank.

Deterrence means a clear message: aggression has consequences.

Music in #Lithuania has always been a voice of freedom, identity, and creativity. In true 80s style, a rock festival predates Independence demonstration.
From the underground to today's vibrant festivals, it tells the story of a nation finding its voice through music.
