Germany's Defense Minister Boris Pistorius has ordered the mandatory deployment of up to 1,000 soldiers to Lithuania, as voluntary recruitment for the German brigade has failed to meet targets. The brigade, expected to reach 4,800 soldiers by the end of 2027, is intended to bolster NATO's eastern flank. Shortages in IT specialists, logisticians, cooks, and enlisted personnel have led to this decision.
