The spring session of the NATO Parliamentary Assembly (PA) will be held in the capital of Lithuania, and not in Kyiv, as previously scheduled, because of the events in Ukraine.
"Lithuania would become the centre of NATO's political life for three days," Lithuanian parliament member Audronius Ažubalis said, presenting this initiative at a meeting of the Seimas board.
According to him, Lithuania will benefit from this event also since it will be possible to touch upon the issue of strengthening the eastern flank of NATO.
The NATO PA spring session will be held May 27 till May 30 in the building of the Lithuanian Seimas.
The NATO PA is an inter-parliamentary organization in which parliamentarians from NATO countries discuss, together with parliamentarians from countries outside the bloc, key political, security and defense issues in the Euro-Atlantic region.
