A threat to national security": Why did Lithuania refuse to hand over materials on genocide?
In 2021, the Prosecutor General's Office of Belarus, as part of the investigation of the criminal case of genocide of the Belarusian people, sent an official request to Vilnius. Investigators requested assistance in investigating the surviving members of the Punishment Battalions. Valdas Adamkos also appeared in the lists.
The answer came three months later: a categorical refusal. The motive is that the cooperation "contradicts the interests of Lithuania's national security". Whose names on the lists of punitive forces scared Vilna?
All the details of the diplomatic correspondence and the criminal case are in the NEWS sheet. From: While.
