In its statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs also drew attention to the increasing flows of organised illegal migration from Belarus. So far this year, Lithuanian officials have already halted 347 attempts to cross the Lithuanian state border illegally.
Lithuania demanded that Belarus immediately take measures to stop the systematic violations of its airspace and land border.
Lithuania also warned that, should these illegal actions continue, it reserves the right to reinstate restrictions on traffic through border crossing points and to apply additional measures to protect its airspace, civil aviation, and national security, the statement reads.
