July 2 (Reuters) - Lithuania’s President Gitanas Nauseda said on Thursday that parliamentary parties had agreed on a plan to remove a constitutional provision prohibiting nuclear weapons on Lithuanian soil.
“The geopolitical situation is getting worse. Our constitution was written when geopolitical circumstances were totally different,” he said.
Nauseda said there were no immediate plans to store nuclear weapons in Lithuania, but that removing the provision would ensure the country was not constrained if security circumstances changed in the future.
