The Baltic states will disconnect from the energy system shared with Russia and Belarus to join the European grid in February 2025, Interfax Russia reported on June 11.

The Baltic nations initially aimed to join the European system by the end of 2025. However, following Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, they advanced the timeline by nearly a year.

Estonia's Interior Ministry has proposed new rules that would seek to limit the ability of non-citizens to buy property near military facilities, the Estonian media outlet ERR reported on June 7, citing a memo by Interior Minister Lauri Laanemets. The measure is reportedly largely directed toward Russian and Belarusian citizens. The proposal follows similar moves by Finland, which has also prevented the acquisition of certain types of property by Russian nationals on the grounds that it could "hinder" national defense. "In Estonia, for example, there are apartments next to some very important ...

Lithuanians went to the polls on Sunday for the second round of the country's presidential election, with incumbent president Gitanas Nausėda aiming to fend off prime minister Ingrida Šimonytė for another five-year term.

Polling stations opened at 7 a.m., with early voters in Vilnius arriving even before the official start. Nearly 2 million citizens are eligible to vote in this eighth presidential election since Lithuania's independence from the Sovi...

Lithuania is holding a presidential election on Sunday at a time when Russian gains on the battlefield in Ukraine are fueling greater fears across all of Europe about Moscow's intentions, particularly in the strategically important Baltic region.

In that case, a runoff would be held two weeks later on 26 May. The president's main tasks in Lithuania's political ...

She warned Moscow would respond with asymmetric measures, though did not specify exactly what the Baltics had supposedly done. "We will also respond to the hostile actions of the Baltic states with asymmetrical measures, primarily in the economic and transit spheres...
