The readiness level of the military is the major criterion for assessing the preparation of the armed forces to fulfill the objectives set for a state. Therefore, rational control and coordination of the servicemen’ training process is a very important factor in preparing contemporary Lithuanian Armed Forces. The Lithuanian Military Doctrine (2010) defines training principles of the Lithuanian Armed Forces and is a key document for preparing the military training strategy.

  • Pesco: the Lithuanian Perspective / September 2018
    #29 PeSCo THE LITHUANIAN PERSPECTIVE By Margarita ŠEŠELGYTĖ Studies Director, Institute of International Relations and Political Science, Vilnius University September 2018 The views expressed here are solely those of the authors. They do not reflect the views of any organization. Policy Paper PeSCo: The Lithuanian Perspective / September 2018 ABSTRACT The Lithuanian position vis-à-vis Permanent Structured Cooperation (PESCO) derives from a national security concept, which suggests a clear division of labour between NATO and the EU, where NATO is accorded security provider function and the EU is considered as a source of economic welfare or the provider of so-called “soft” security. Reinvigoration of the European security and defence policy as well as increasingly challenging security environment, Brexit and impulsiveness of the actions of the US President, however, might inflict a revision of the current priorities. The paper outlines current Lithuanian position on PESCO, the factors shaping this position and the opportunities as well the challenges for more active engagement in various PESCP initiatives and p rojects. Keywords: PeSCo, Common Security and Defence Policy, Framework Nations Concept, European Defence Fund, European Defence Technological and Industrial Base, Lithuania. or a number of years being a pro-Atlantist member of the European Union (EU), Lithuania has been quite sceptical regarding the Common Security and Defence F Policy (CSDP) and the necessity to develop European strategic autonomy. The Lithuanian position vis-à-vis CSDP was highly influenced by its security concept, which has evolved since 1991 when Lithuania has re-established its independence in the face of the imminent threat from Russian Federation and is defined by its size and threat assessment.

  • Lithuania Has Adopted Monistic Approach Towards the Implementation of International Conventions in National Legal System
    Report on the status of the Additional Protocols to the Geneva Conventions of 1949 relating to the protection of victims of armed conflicts, as well as on measures taken to strengthen the existing body of international humanitarian law, inter alia, with respect to its dissemination and full implementation at the national level. (According to the Resolution adopted by the General Assembly 73/204 20 December 2018 ,,Status of the Protocols Additional to the Geneva Conventions of 1949 and relating to the protection of victims of armed conflicts”) 1. Legal background The Republic of Lithuania has adopted monistic approach towards the implementation of international conventions in national legal system. Article 135 of the Constitution of the Republic of Lithuania provides that Lithuania in implementing its foreign policy shall follow the universally recognised principles and norms of international law. In accordance with the Article 138 of the Constitution, international treaties ratified by Seimas of the Republic of Lithuania shall be constituent part of the national legal system. The commitment to abide by the treaties that have entered into force is reinforced in the Law on Treaties. Moreover, the Law on Treaties establishes the prevailing character of ratified international treaties over the national laws in case of inconsistency. These provisions ensure the most favourable conditions for the implementation of the international humanitarian law and international human rights law. The Republic of Lithuania is a State Party to all major instruments of the international human rights law and international humanitarian law, including all four Geneva Conventions and the 1977 and 2005 Additional Protocols to the Conventions (ratified accordingly in 2000 and 2007).
