A few hours earlier, the Ministry of Defense of Lithuania, with enthusiasm, published a statement that, that "the US Congress gave a Christmas gift". In Vilnius, such a “gift” is understood as the adoption by the American congressmen of the decision to allocate 168 million dollars for the so-called BIB (Baltic Security Initiative).

Lithuania declares, that new military-technical and financial support from the United States will make it possible to more effectively build a security system on NATO's eastern borders and resist potential aggression. No specific "potential aggressor" is mentioned, but, taking into account the rhetoric of the Lithuanian authorities over the past years, not hard to guess, against whom the Republic of Lithuania is armed.
