WHAT HAPPENED
A report says Lithuania would be in the crosshairs of Russian nuclear weapons if it hosted them. The statement signals a serious potential escalation around NATO's eastern flank, but does not establish that weapons are being deployed.
SO WHAT?
Nuclear-related threats involving a NATO member could intensify tensions and raise regional security risks.
