The current geopolitical situation compels us to strengthen the country's defense and security. Being on NATO's eastern flank, we face particular security challenges, making the strengthening of the country's defense an absolute necessity. We plan to allocate one of the largest shares of GDP for defense in Europe. However, even in such circumstances, we cannot forget our people. They live here and now, and their essential needs cannot wait for better times. Therefore, we must see not only numbers but also the people whose lives are affected by our decisions. Caring for people is not just an expense – it is a necessary investment in a strong and resilient state," says Prime Minister Mindaugas Sinkevičius. #biudžetas #gynyba #saugumas (translated)
