(Baltic Times) Migrants suspected of being linked to terrorist organizations have been isolated and pose no threat, Lithuanian Defense Minister Arvydas Anusauskas and Laurynas Kasciunas, chairman of the parliamentary Committee on National Security and Defense, said on Friday.
Speaking with journalists in Vilnius, Kasciunas said that “several dozen” people who entered [Lithuania] from Belarus are all isolated.
“They are completely neutralized, those people today (…) are brought under control, risks are completely controlled,” he said.
Asked whether there could [be] more of such people, the politician said “the number is final.”
“They are under surveillance and have no means of communication. Terrorism is an activity that involves the organization of activity of small groups. They cannot do such activity even theoretically. At least in certain zones they are controlled, and we know where they are,” he said.
