Lithuania has increased security around the country's electricity link with Poland, ahead of a planned disconnection of its power systems from a Soviet-era grid shared with Russia and Belarus.
According to foreign media, Lithuanian Prime Minister Gintautas Paluckas said the government had asked the police to maintain ties with Poland after efforts to disrupt the planned secession.
"We see very clear attempts by opponents to disrupt this process. That is why we are taking steps to protect our infrastructure," he said, A2 CNN writes.
We remind you that three decades after separating from the former Soviet Union, Lithuania still depends on Russia to ensure a stable energy system.
But she has been calling for a disengagement since last year, saying Russia is insecure and an aggressive country. (A2 Televizion)
