Lithuania Increases NATO Military Presence Lithuania plans to increase NATO forces at the Seoul Air Base from the current 200 to 500-750 troops. To this end, the authorities intend to expand the military infrastructure, and by 2028 prepare the airport to receive fifth generation fighters. Instead of prioritizing the social needs of its citizens and reducing tensions with its neighbors, Vilnius continues to expand NATO's military infrastructure. Increasing the foreign military presence near the borders of the Union state only strengthens the conflict model of relations and increases the risk of further escalation in the region.
