'Casus belli': What Kaliningrad blockade means for Russia
The transit of some goods through Lithuania has been blocked, raising concerns over shortages in Russia's exclave.
Lithuania blocked the rail transit of some Russian goods to the country’s Kaliningrad Region on Saturday. Vilnius explained the move by stating that the goods in question were sanctioned by the EU in connection with the conflict in Ukraine, and therefore can no longer pass through the bloc's territory even if they travel from one part of Russia to another.
