AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Baltic Drone Panic: Lithuania’s Vilnius went into shelter mode after a suspected drone breach from Belarus, with NATO jets scrambled and Vilnius airport airspace temporarily closed—then the alert was lifted within about 25 minutes, while officials admitted communication failures and promised more frequent, clearer public warnings. Nuclear Escalation: Russia delivered nuclear munitions to field storage in Belarus as joint drills run across both countries, focused on Iskander-M missile systems—raising the temperature as European leaders warn peace can’t be assumed. Diplomatic Push: NATO and EU chiefs backed the Baltics against Moscow’s claims they enable Ukrainian drone attacks, calling the accusations “utter nonsense,” while Canada–Baltics talks urged better NATO situational awareness. Tech Spotlight: A new Baltic Deep Tech report says the region’s deep-tech startups surged to €7.5B enterprise value by 2025, with defence tech the fastest accelerator.
