The parliaments of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania are urging the U.S. Congress to maintain funding for the Baltic Security Initiative, essential for American military support.

The call comes in the context of the White House's intention to reduce funding allocated to this initiative, which worries the Baltic states, located in Russia's sphere of influence. Leaders from Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania emphasize that a reduction in military support could make the region vulnerable and could encourage aggression from Moscow.
