In accordance with the Ministry of Nationwide Protection, the Pociūnai airfield, positioned in a strategic location – close to the Suwalki hall, is already utilized by the military to coach paratroopers.
The Ministry of Transport proposed to the Authorities to not approve the inclusion of each airfields within the listing, as they’re appropriate just for small and sport aviation, and their location shouldn’t be appropriate for allied forces or protection operations. As well as, in accordance with the ministry, their infrastructure shouldn’t be wanted for state mobilization duties.
The Seimas will make the ultimate determination concerning the inclusion of Pociūnai and Alytus airfields within the listing.
