Lithuania: Military Alliances
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what steps he is taking to improve (a) military and (b) other defence cooperation with Lithuania.
Answered by Al Carns
The UK continues to develop its defence relationship with Lithuania, as both NATO and The Joint Expeditionary Force (JEF) allies. The JEF provides a key framework for deepening UK-Lithuania cooperation, enabling both countries to collaborate effectively on rapid response operations, collective defence, and deterrence within Northern Europe and the Baltic region. Through the JEF, the UK and Lithuania participate in regular joint exercises, operational planning, and capability development, enhancing interoperability and readiness to respond to emerging threats.
