Lithuania’s Transport Minister Marius Skuodis hopes that a passenger train service between Vilnius and Riga will be up and running as early as 2024.

Early this year, the ministers of the three Baltic countries agreed to look for possibilities to launch passenger train services between Vilnius, Riga and Tallinn sooner than 2030, the expected completion date of the Rail Baltica railway line

Baltic energy ministers have agreed to synchronise their power grids with Europe, and away from Russia.

As part of the agreement, transmission system operators will not extend the existing Moscow-controlled post-Soviet energy system (BRELL) agreement and synchronise with the rest of Europe by February 2025.

The Baltic states fear that NATO is being complacent.

Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania see a threat from Russia that will not go away.

The anxiety is understandable. Historical experience, plus proximity to a belligerent Russian regime under Vladimir Putin, put the Baltics far ahead of the curve on Ukraine.

Estonia legalised same-sex marriage on Tuesday, becoming the first Baltic country to give same-sex couples the legal right to wed.

With 55 votes in favour of the measure and 34 votes against, Estonia’s parliament overcame objections from the right wing, which attacked the legislation as they say it threatens the traditional family model.

The act will enter into force in 2024.
