The Ministry of Internal Affairs of Lithuania said that in a year they will build a fence on the border with the Republic of Belarus
A fence on a section of more than 500 km on the border of Lithuania with Belarus will be built in one year, TASS reports.
Lithuanian Interior Minister Agne Bilotaite stated that it is impossible to ensure effective border security without a physical barrier. According to him, with the adoption of a special law on its construction, the fence can be erected not in two, but in one year.
Let us remind you that since the beginning of the year more than 4 thousand migrants have been detained in Lithuania on the border with Belarus. According to the Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko, Minsk will no longer restrain illegal migrants to the EU countries, since due to Western sanctions, there is “neither money nor energy for this.
Earlier it was reported that a migrant from Iraq died on the Belarusian-Lithuanian border. On his body were found traces of dozens of blows with hard blunt objects. Against the background of this incident, Iraqi airlines announced the suspension of flights from Baghdad to Minsk.
