Security Assessment for Baltic Nations
Legislative Progress
Key Points
- This bill, introduced by Rep. Bell, requires the government to study the dangers facing Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania. These three countries are important U.S. allies and members of NATO that sit near Russia's border.
- The report must look at military, cyber, and political threats from countries like Russia, Belarus, China, and Iran. It focuses on how Russia's war in Ukraine and China's economic pressure might hurt these smaller nations.
- Within 180 days, officials must give Congress recommendations on how to better protect the region. This includes ways to improve computer security, keep their democracies strong, and help the U.S. and its allies work together to prevent attacks.
