After news of a drone carrying explosives, Jeglinskas calls for action: we need to get our heads out of the sand

Last week, a drone flying into Lithuania from Belarus was not neutralised. This decision by the authorities was sharply criticised not only by the opposition but also by representatives of the ruling party. On Tuesday, it became clear that the aircraft, found on Friday at the Gaižiūnai training ground, was carrying explosive ordnance. According to Giedrimas Jeglinskas, Chairman of the Seimas National Security and Defence Committee (NSGK), we should be glad that the charge did not explode. Still, this situation, according to the parliamentarian, only proves that it is necessary to take immediate action to protect the country's airspace and the people of Lithuania.
