立陶宛在俄罗斯无人机侵犯后寻求北约支持

Summary

立陶宛已请求北约协助加强其防空能力,此前两架俄罗斯军用无人机进入其领空,其中一架携带爆炸物。

立陶宛已正式请求北约协助提升其防空能力,此前两架俄罗斯军用无人机于七月侵犯了其领空。立陶宛外交部长凯斯图蒂斯·布德里斯和国防部长多维莱·沙卡连娜在致北约秘书长马克·吕特的信中强调,亟需采取措施加强防空,并加快实施北约轮换防空模式。

第一次事件发生在7月10日,一架俄罗斯制造的“芥菜花”无人机从白俄罗斯进入立陶宛领空,并在边境内约一公里处坠毁。第二次事件发生在7月28日,涉及另一架“芥菜花”无人机,该无人机携带约两公斤爆炸物。该无人机疑似以乌克兰为目标,但可能被乌克兰防御系统偏转,最终坠毁在立陶宛军事区域。

布德里斯强调这些侵犯事件的更广泛影响,指出其他北约盟国如拉脱维亚、波兰和罗马尼亚也报告了类似事件。他强调,保卫北约东翼不应仅由立陶宛承担,呼吁共同努力应对这些新兴威胁。

对此,北约表示正密切监视局势,欧洲最高盟军司令获授权采取必要行动。联盟还指出,成员国正在持续努力提升反无人机能力。

这些事态发展凸显了北约成员国对领空安全的日益关注,以及俄罗斯对乌克兰的侵略可能波及联盟领土的潜在风险。
