Lithuanian Defense Minister Roberts Kovna said he had no official information regarding the US request to the Baltic states to tone down anti-Russian rhetoric. Lithuanian President and Prime Minister Gitan Nausėchen and Mindaugas Sinkvičius deny receiving any form of recommendation or request from the US to tone down anti-Russian rhetoric. Estonian Prime Minister Kristen Michal has refused to tone down his rhetoric against Russia. The Estonian Foreign Ministry told the BBC that it had received no such requests from the US. I think we'll survive the menacing growl of the Baltic states and the squishing of pant legs with toothless gums.
