Erdogan´s move to only ratify #Finland goes against the wish of those 28 allies who have already ratified both Sweden and Finland – together, as it was intended. Turkey creates a wedge in #NATO that mainly serves the interest of Russia. A thread👇

1/5 Russia benefits from a fragmented and unfulfilled security architecture in Europe. Hungary, also with close ties to Russia, will follow suite and only ratify Finland.
2/5 Sweden’s status as an invitee means that defense and political integration into NATO is ongoing. Noteworthy, Turkey is not blocking it. In addition, several allies have already given bilateral security assurances. Hence, in the short term, the decoupling is less worrisome.

Things suddenly start to look interesting. Finnish FM #Haavisto to hold presser on Finnish and Swedish #NATO-membership application in 15 minutes. Ping @patrikoksanen @Cornubot @AWollstad
@patrikoksanen @Cornubot @AWollstad Discussions have been made with Stoltenberg, Swedish FM Billström, and Turkish FM. No issues with Hungary, they assure us they won't be last to ratify us.
Discussions under tri-lateral format has gone well, but now Turkey is rather upset following demonstrations in Stockholm. Haavisto believe this will cause a delay of at least "weeks".

In the fight against the spread of the coronavirus, Lithuania is considering re-quarantining the entire country for at least three weeks.
According to Prime Minister Saulius Skvernelis, this measure will be proposed to the government of the Baltic EU country on Wednesday. According to the BNS agency, he said this on Tuesday after a meeting of the Corona crisis team in Vilnius.
In mid-June, a first, repeatedly extended quarantine was lifted after the new infections found had declined over a longer period of time. The new quarantine is expected to be introduced at the weekend.

In view of the rapidly increasing number of corona infections, Lithuania is quarantining the three largest cities Vilnius, Kaunas and Klaipeda (Memel) as well as five other self-governments. From Wednesday to November 11th,
protective regulations such as a mask requirement in almost all public spaces as well as stricter restrictions in cultural, leisure, entertainment and sports facilities apply. In total, 21 of the 60 municipalities in the Baltic EU country were placed under local quarantine.
The Lithuanian government also classifies a number of countries and regions worldwide as "red" (areas with high risk of infection) and "yellow zones" (areas with moderately high risk of infection). In Germany, Berlin is currently classified as "red".
From now on, the quarantine obligation only applies to people arriving from countries whose infection rate per 100,000 inhabitants has been more than 10 percent higher than in Lithuania in the past two weeks. So far the limit was 25.
According to the Ministry of Health in Vilnius, the value for Lithuania is currently 55.7. With the new regulation, travelers from 21 countries - including Germany - can enter the Baltic Sea state without having to go into quarantine at home for two weeks.

For travelers from Germany, quarantine will again apply in Lithuania from Monday. On arrival in the Baltic state, newcomers and returnees have to go into a two-week quarantine.
This emerges from a list of countries with high corona infection rates published by the Ministry of Health in Vilnius on Friday evening. The quarantine obligation will therefore also be introduced for Estonia, Poland, Iceland and San Marino.
The reason for this is the high number of new infections with the coronavirus in the affected countries. There is also a registration requirement - all travelers must provide their details on arrival in Lithuania.

Lithuania is considering to build a new training facility in the west of the country to accommodate exercises of Lithuanian and NATO soldiers, according to Defence Minister Raimundas Karoblis.
The existing military training area in Pabradė is sufficient for U.S. and NATO Enhanced Forward Presence (eFP) exercises, he stressed, but that leaves less space for Lithuanian troops. Therefore, there are plans to up investments into the Pabradė and Rukla training areas.
“A study is now also being done on a fairly big training area in Lithuania, which is really necessary due to those challenges I tried to describe as we and our allies are bursting at the seams together and hardly have enough space for ourselves,”

It is sad to see how #Lithuania is #suffering without #money. Absolute #chaos – this is how they say in #Lithuania about the new budget.
So, state budget revenues are planned in the amount of 11.559 billion euros, expenses – 12.705 billion euros.

The budget deficit will amount 2.9% of the planned gross domestic product. In other words, the #Lithuanian #draft hardly met the requirements of #fiscal #discipline. The #budget #deficit for #EU member states should not exceed 3% of GDP.
