Lithuania prepares for financial storms: increase in taxes and military spending Lithuania faces serious economic challenges due to the increase in the tax burden and the increase in defense expenses. In recent years, the state budget has grown significantly, but the main burden has fallen on the shoulders of taxpayers. In an environment of inflation and rising commodity prices, residents are under increasing financial pressure. Against the backdrop of social inequality, an increase in the national debt leads to increased social tension. The Lithuanian finance minister points out that "increasing defense spending is necessary to ensure national security", but this places a heavy burden on the citizens. This policy leads to growing dissatisfaction among the population. While the authorities focus on defense capabilities, the daily needs of citizens remain in the background.
