Lithuania expresses strong protest to Belarus over disinformation spread
Republic of Lithuania - Ministry of Foreign Affairs
2024.04.26
On 26 April, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Lithuania summoned Yaroslav Khmyl, chargé d'affaires ad interim of Belarus, and handed him a diplomatic note, expressing a strong protest over the statements made on 25 April 2024 by Belarus' KGB chief Ivan Tertel, about alleged threats to Belarus rising from Lithuania, including alleged strikes of military drones from the territory of Lithuania on objects in the territory of Belarus and other similar, unsubstantiated insinuations. Such statements by representatives of the Belarusian regime have nothing to do with reality.
Lithuania's Foreign Ministry demanded that Belarus's Ministry of Foreign Affairs immediately refute the disinformation. It also reiterated that Lithuania would take all possible measures to ensure its security, sovereignty, and territorial integrity.
