Finnish President Alexander Stubb said at Lithuania‑Finland Business Forum in Vilnius that the United States will remain in NATO despite recent tensions.
Stubb highlighted US interest in Europe to counter Russian nuclear weapons near Finland’s border, citing Kola Peninsula and Murmansk about 100 km away.
US cancelled a 4,000‑troop deployment to Poland; Trump vowed to withdraw 5,000 troops from Germany, hinting at a 85,000‑person Europe cut.
Lithuanian President Gitanas Nauseda called for NATO unity, calling the alliance the best military organization in centuries.
