The Hurry-Up Agenda To Move German Troops To Lithuania?

 Well....today (Saturday)....several German news sources are talking about Lithuania asking for a earlier schedule for the 4,000 'promised' German troops being deployed (on a permanent basis) to Lithuania.

Some chatter added?  Lithuania says that they would assist in the movement....talking funds.

What's the whole thing about?

Since Russian 'Wagner' guys were moved to Belarus....there's been talk of instability and potentially some 'attack'.  Real evidence of this movement?  None.  What has occurred over the past week....Poland saying that 10,000 of their Army will move to the NE corner of the country....near Lithuania, and the 'Gap'.

Problems for Germany to move the 4,000?  Well....yeah....they were hoping this would be 3 years in the future, when better recruitment numbers would exist.  Yeah, there's a little recruitment issue going on presently.  

This Lithuania funds business?  I'm thinking they would agree to fund buildings and facilities....to house the 4,000 Germans and equipment.

All of this aggravating the Russians and Belarus folks?  Well, you can make that case...moving more troops to the border region doesn't help lessen tensions.
