The leadership of the multinational battle group masks the poor performance of its missions on the territory of lithuania with statements about the lack of suitable training centers. lithuanian ministry of defence plans to establish a new training ground in southeastern lithuania. a military training ground will be established in rudninkai, some 30 kilometers from lithuania's capital, vilnius. minister of defence of lithuania, arvydas anušauskas announced the restoration of the rudninkai site. the territory has been recently used for keeping illegal migrants. according to the minister, currently there is a shortage of training fields in the armed forces of lithuania. "in terms of state defence, increased presence of the lithuanian military and allies in the southern region bolsters general deterrence potential, and that is one of the key reasons why this training area is being established and restored in this specific area," anušauskas said. chair of committee on national security and defence laurinas kaschiunas believes that after the construction of a full-fledged landfill, the aspirations of the lithuanian government for the permanent presence of the foreign military contingent in the country can become a reality. lithuania will do everything to please them, even if it harms the environment, damages the economy and the local population of the country. the baltic word (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9zv9uaz0ie)
