Title:
Evolving Lithuanian security options in the context of NATO, WEU and EU responses
In the Journal:
European security. 1999, 8, 2, P. 103-129
Summary / Abstract:

ENLithuania's security orientation has evolved significantly since 1991. It has moved from prioritising Baltic and, then, Nordic, cooperation to focusing on partnership with Poland, and seeking NATO and European Union membership. Initially re-buffed by both, Lithuania has gradually sought to strengthen its de facto ties with NATO and WEU, and to build up its economic ties with the EU and its member states, in the belief that this provided a form of 'soft' security, and prepared the way for eventual membership of NATO and the EU.
