Putin issues nuclear warning as NATO mulls nukes on Russia's doorstep | Europe,Lithuania,Ukraine

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov warned Lithuania could enter Moscow’s nuclear crosshairs if allied atomic weapons are stationed on its territory. The warning comes as Vilnius moves to scrap its constitutional ban on weapons of mass destruction, potentially opening the door to a future European nuclear-sharing arrangement. Germany is also deploying a heavy tank brigade in Lithuania near Russia. With NATO strengthening its eastern flank, is Europe testing one of Putin’s most dangerous red lines?
