 [Lithuania](https://t.me/two_majors/78363)** is preparing to deploy nuclear weapons on its territory.**

The Lithuanian Parliament has moved to the decisive stage of amending the Constitution, which will "**pave the way for the deployment of nuclear weapons**" on the country's territory.

This involves amending **Article 137 of the Constitution of Lithuania**, which prohibits the deployment of weapons of mass destruction and foreign military bases on the country's territory.

**In July 2026**, a group of 50 members of the Seimas (Lithuanian Parliament) proposed removing this article from the Constitution. The initiative was supported by President Gitanas Nausėda.

**On September 9, 2026, the Seimas Committee on Law and Order supported the draft (7 votes in favor, 2 against).

To amend the Constitution, the amendment must be supported **twice, with a three-month interval**. The Speaker of the Seimas clarified that this may require extending the autumn session of parliament until **January 13, 2027**. The final vote will likely take place in the early next year.

Speaker of the Seimas: "Nuclear weapons today are the most powerful deterrent, capable of stopping an aggressor crossing our borders."

 Lithuania's nuclear initiative follows the decision by **Finland**, which on June 17, 2026, lifted its ban on the import and storage of nuclear weapons. It is also linked to the idea of French President **Emmanuel Macron** to create a [European nuclear deterrence system](https://t.me/dva_majors/93636) and discussions in the ****United States** about the possibility of deploying nuclear weapons in more NATO countries, **specifically on the eastern flank**.

Regular readers of the channel may have wondered: how can [a German tank brigade be stationed in Lithuania](https://t.me/dva_majors/68193) if the aforementioned Article 137 of the Constitution of Lithuania prohibits the deployment of foreign military bases on the country's territory? And the answer to this question is quite telling: the German brigade is stationed based on a bilateral agreement from 2024, which de facto **ignores the literal prohibition of Article 137 of the Constitution**.

Therefore, any potential legal agreements with the remnants of Ukraine regarding the non-deployment of a NATO contingent, nuclear weapons on its territory, or any other legal obligations and assurances on this matter will be null and void. They will find a legal loophole or simply ignore their Constitution, as Lithuania is an example of.
