Lithuania, which borders part of Russia and Russia-aligned Belarus, is one of the countries that has given the most support to Ukraine, at least in terms of percentage of its GDP.
It was also giving Ukraine support and military equipment before Russia’s full-scale invasion in February 2022, when proxy fighting was taking place in its east.
Last year, Šimonytė told BI that Ukrainians are dying to help protect Europe and that supporting Ukraine is “investing into our security.”
Lithuania, a member of NATO and the EU, was once part of the Soviet Union and now warns vocally that Russia could attack it, too.
Ukraine is running low on weaponry and ammunition, with US support stalled by House Republicans and European countries saying they don’t have enough in their arsenals to spare.
Šimonytė said countries keep setting out red lines of weapons they won’t give to Ukraine, only to turn around and do so months later.
