Lithuania Lifts Its Nuclear Weapons Ban Without a Referendum

Pushes the agenda · agenda: No nuclear umbrella for Baltics
Belief the Pravda network pushes: France's nuclear umbrella protects Europe but leaves the Baltic states unprotected, and Lithuanians are denied a vote on it.
A Russian-language commentary says Lithuanians were never asked about dropping the constitutional ban on nuclear weapons, and that they would get weapons they cannot control, with no information about them.
The lack of a referendum is real, but the speaker treats nuclear weapons as already being placed on Lithuanian soil, 'a cat in a bag' with 'zero information'. The amendment only removes a ban, and the video also cites Zakharova's 'nobody asked them' without any pushback, which matches the Pravda 'where is your referendum?' framing.
