The German Brigade In Lithuania: Everything There Is To Know
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 бер 2024
- In an expensive defensive move that hopes to deter Russia from military action against Lithuania, a German brigade has been requested to be stationed in the Baltic country. This is big. In fact, this will be the first permanent deployment of German troops since the Second World War.

A German soldiers wife here. We will move this or next year to Vilnius. 2 kids, 1 year and 3 year old. We live in a house here with a big garden for the kids to play. We live in a very small village in the „woods“. Surrounded by mountains.
But we also missed some things. Going for a walk straight and not always up and down. To ride a bike is impossible here, unless you have an e-bike. Und no water around. No sea, river, …. Nothing. No kulture. Just woods. Beautiful woods, great hiking tours.
As my husband said we could go to Lithuania…. We saw 1 or two videos on UA-cam. Looked at each other and said “yes”
Your country is beautiful in every way. And Vilnius and the other towns are full of culture and history.
And it’s no question to help these people. To defend Lithuania and to meet these kind people.
The NATO is one team. Europe is one team. We must play together.
Yes it means I have to probably live in an apartment. Giving up my house and my garden. My beautiful roses and flowers. But Lithuania has so much to offer. Even in winter. Finally enough snow to play.
So Lithuanian 🇱🇹 …. We are coming. And are so excited. I can’t wait to meet you.
Viel Erfolg Jana :)
We will welcome you with open arms :) and who knows, maybe you'll find some garden to take care of in Lithuania :) best of luck
Lithuania is friendly, peaceful and safe.
I hope you can find a house with a garden
Ich wünsche dir eine gute Reise! Wir werden auf ihnen warten!
Viel, viel Glück, ihr werdet es brauchen.
As a Lithuanian. To all those Germans that might be reading this. Thank you! I apreaciate you. And if i see any of you soldiers in Kaunas will offer you a beer on your day off.

For decades, American troops were in Germany and supported us until the fall of the Warsaw Pact. I think now we Germans should help our friends in Lithuania and give something back. Murderer Putin must know that we in NATO help each other and defend ourselves.

sorry man, that's truly a dumb comment.
It doesn't matter, obviously very different culture, different Zeitgeist, different mind set, let those generations RIP!

@@leto2582 my great grandfather was a Wehrmacht soldier and he fought in France, Belarus and also in Lithuania. If he would see how we Germans are now brothers in arms with the Lithuanians and how we protect our allies he would probably be very happy about it. While he was part of the Wehrmacht and fought against the Soviet Union, he never hated those people and he wished for peace for everyone to come. Current NATO and EU is the only example in the history of humankind where multiple countries are actually friends and not just allies and help eachother out. It’s a huge step for humankind. As a German, love to all my Lithuanian brothers and sister
@@sharkquark6252 yeh your gandfather was killing Lithuanian people in Vilnius in ww2 learn your history kid
Friends? The annual greek military budget is not that high because of Russia or Iran but because of their friendly neighbours and Nato partner Turkey.
Defending Lithuania is defending NATO, is defending Europe, is defending Germany.
Thx Lithuanians for being a brave and smart people, refusing russian intentions.
Thx german Soldiers for your dedication for all of us.
This is fantastic news and shows the strength of NATO membership. Vilnius is a perfect locations due to the proximity to Belarus. A permanent base will also contribute to the LIthuanian economy. My ancestors are smiling. Eighty years ago Lithuania was occupied by Germany and today they are there to help defend.
Well, back then they also were the "lesser evil" against Russia
But to be fair - Russia attacked us first, and was the first nation to actively try and kill us
Well. Idk if you know it but according to the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact, Lithuania fell in Germany's zone of occupation. Hitler later traded it for Mazovia with Stalin.
That's how Vilnius became Lithuanian again back then by the way. The Poles would never have given it back to Lithuanians voluntarily.
Wir bleiben nicht lange, nur bis nächsten Sommer.
@@derotto9581 das stimmt so nicht. Die Brigade in Litauen wird erst 2027 volle Einsatzbereitschaft erreichen, d.h. wir kommen um zu bleiben.
@@traumvonhaitiHitler and Stalin split up Poland. But only once Lithuania had secretly been declared part of the Soviet "zone of influence" (in exchange for Mazovia, as you described) did Stalin decide to "grant" Vilnius to Lithuania. The "price" Lithuanians payed for their new capital were Soviet troops on Lithuanian ground even prior to Lithuania's formal annexation a few months later.
sincerely, thank you, Germans
Wow, I would have never thought that my country would ever get a military base anywhere in the world ever again. I am German and I amm 100% pro sending troops out to other EU/NATO member to defend and help them.
I am proud of my country to be trusted again by our friends in the world for them to invite German soldiers into their countries for defence purposes.
Lithuania used to be our neighbour,but as a descendant of prussians i will not lift a finger for the eastern flank,ever.
Poland has stolen my ancestors home,now they can defend it.
@@fragdoch-nicht1290 One of my grandfather's comes from Prussia too... he never got over it... but by now... the only solution is... to look ahead and let things lie in the past.
I also do not think that Poland stole any land. That's an oversimplification. Regardless of how it all went down... Those territories are now Polish no matter what. The good thing about the EU is... anyone who wants to return to wherever... they can now. My grandfather visited his home village in the 1990s once every 3 years or so (and he got along so well with the people who lived there then). Germany and Poland are so historically intertwined now... it would be so criminally not in anyone's interest to defend Poland or the Balticum.
as a german kid of the cold war it was totaly normal to see foreign soldiers on daily base, as a soldier myself I saw the end of the cold war, the fall of the wall and the reunification of Germany. I am so thankfull to every single NATO soldier who did his tour in Germany, every single soldiers contribution to defend Germany was a part in a giant puzzle that at the end let the east collaps and end the cold war. The impact on Lithuania will be big and most of them will be very positive, every garrison city in Germany had a huge increase in wealth infrastructure cultural exchange, in Germany the allied soldiers came as winner and turned very quickly into NATO partner and friends... today the Germans go to Lithuania as NATO Partners and hopefully will turn quickly into friends. Lets hope that this contribution of NATO soldiers is the start of a new puzzle that lead to the collaps of the new threat coming from Russia.
Very nice channel! I’m German and my wife is from Lithuania. We’re married for 8 years now and living with our two kids in Germany. I have taken on the family name of my wife. I hope that we will get better airline connections now to Kaunas, for visiting our Lithuanian family.
As a regular German I have to say that I view this in a very positive light and I hope it will create a good relationship between our countries. I have been to Lithuania and have the impression that many Lithuanians are quite keen to have a bigger NATO presence there. During my visits I have seen quite a lot a uniformed German soldiers in Vilnius and did not get the impression that the locals disapprove of them. But I think it is very important to not disturb the housing market any further. Lithuania is a great country!
Greetings from Estonia to Lithuania and to Germany
The German military and Government have decade's and decade's worth of firsthand knowledge and experience with the presence of the US military being stationed in Germany. The Germans will no doubt use these experiences to reverse engineer themselves by being stationed forwarded in another country. Issues will arise, but if any country knows how to accomplish this establishment, it is Germany. Fantastic to see.
Ex British soldier who formed part of the hundred thousand plus British contingent facing the Warsaw Pact a lifetime ago based in a variety of garrisons in Westphalen. Keeping a forward element no mattter how small has always made good military sense and can also be good civil sense also. It will be a great experience for the German soldiers and their families. It would be a great idea if the British prescence in Estonia became a brigade sized permanent feature with families and perhaps a French equivalent in Latvia.
That would give the Baltic region close to a complete Division of professional troops who would work and train alongside each other, learn the local terrain and the Baltic fold might sleep a little easier knowing they would not be abandoned if the worst scenario came to fruittion.
I've grown up with you guys. I lived close to ETR Kohima and I always loved riding my bike up that small hill and check out if you were on an exercise and trying to spot you in the bushes. In my experience, the British soldiers were fun to be around as a child. They were very chill and kind and we loved searching the temporary camps for stuff left behind once they left and went back to their main camp. The only thing not so pleasant was being woken up by 556 on a weekend at 7 or 8 in the morning.
So in short: I dunno where you were stationed exactly, but if you were once at Kohima, we might have met :)
when we were in 1980"s stationed in Germany as a Belgian soldier , we had garrison cities with scools and very close social life with the locals. We had shopping centers but alos bought our livings in the local markets . I lived for 6 years in Ludenscheid during the cold war and these were happy days. Hard training too and high readiness (half batalion had to be on the move in about 20 min and on their way to their gathering stations for ammo , livings and others ... we then could go on to our battle stations at the East German border) Half of the battalion was on alert. at least once a month a squadron or every 4 months the whole battalion could expect an alarm and readiness test
Finally we'll have a proper Oktoberfest! In all seriousness, it is great to have you in Lithuania my fellow German soldiers and your families. We will make sure you're happy here and in time I'm sure we shall develop a close friendship, beyond that of mutual cooperation. Danke!
During my 4 years of service for the Bundeswehr (Luftwaffe) in the 90s I was send to different countries.
If I was still a soldier and young and Y-Tours* asks me I would also move to Lithuania.
*Fun fact: Bundeswehr vehicles have a "Y" on their license plates. So if they send you anywhere it is called "traveling with "Y-Tours" or "Why-Tours". There is also a joke about it: Y-Tours - wir buchen, Sie fluchen (Y-Tours - we book and you curse)
Lithuania
As a German I'm totally okay with this. But it's sad that it's necessary. I'd rather just live in peace with Russia. They do their thing and we do ours. But Putin doesn't want so. 😔
I hope this ends in a deeper German-Lithuanian friendship. And in an exchange of cultures. The best we can do with it, right? Germans may seem a bit cold at the beginning. Prepare for that. 😂We're also known for being very direct and tell you right away what we're thinking. Even if it's not very positive. It can even appear a bit rude or offensive but that's not how it's ment. You'll learn it soon... 😁 But they also say that when you once made a German your friend it's a friendship for live.
I'm glad my government decided to take some more responsibility when it comes to European security. It's questionable if we can rely on the US in the future like it was in the past. So especially we Europeans should stick closer together.
Best wishes to all Lithuanians and the whole Baltics.
Wenn der Nachbar ein Affe mit Gewehr und Atombombe ist, muss man vorsichtig sein
We Lithuanians are pretty similar - reserved and cold and sometimes rude, but please know that deep down we really appreciate you guys coming here to help us. And we'll do our best to make you feel welcome.
@@manvydaspletkus3874 Sound like a perfect match! 😂
We aren't so different from you folks. Over 80 years ago, Lithuanians and Germans coexisted in Prussia, with Lithuanians even referring to it as "Lithuania minor" due to a significant Lithuanian minority in Prussian territory. Interestingly, the first Lithuanian and Prussian books were printed there. In much of eastern Prussia, people were bilingual, which likely explains why we share many commonly used words in the Lithuanian language. Matter a fact, we still have a German school in Klaipėda named after Hermann Sudermann.
@@marijusdovydaitis6920 True! We even have that common history in Prussia. I think I should learn a bit more about Lithuania. I have to admit that I do not know much about your country. I'm sure there are some intersting vids on YT. Gonna check them out! 👍
This is an important milestone in Germany-Lithuania relation. My dream is that eventually this evolves into a division sized project where Germany would have very sizeable, visible, permanent and indefinite military presence in Lithuania. This is a good step to the right direction.

Exactly.
Are you sure? 😅
Why?@@realnapster1522
I think for Lithuania it is a bit of security when there are NATO troops in the country. 5,000 German soldiers may not seem like a lot at first glance, but in the entire Baltic Alliance and the other NATO allies they can cause major problems for Russia. As a German, I can say from my experiences with US soldiers in the country that the economic advantage outweighs the "disadvantages" and that there is also a human gain for both sides.
considering how we only have 2 and a bit brigades, another brigade on top is at least a 25% increase through numbers alone nevermind the force power they contribute
Thats our first step back into the global geopolitical military playing field. Finally society is ready to accept that we start to look out for our own good again.

What about Brigades of other countries in Estonia and Latvian? Suwalki Gap, i guess, is at least well protected then by Poland, Germany and Lithuania.
Afaik Latvia will get a Canadian led brigade. Estonia will have a British command staff on location and a British brigade is set to heightened readiness in the UK to deploy if needed.
Germany is going to build an additional “medium” brigade which will be based on wheeled boxer vehicles. With several versions including wheeled artillery, Ifvs, etc. and the Australian crv version which is heavily weaponised similar to the potentials ifv variant but able to carry drones and having a manned turret. This is meant to be able to quickly get by its on force to the frontline via its wheeled nature and potentially support the efp and the German brigade.
Latvia already have mechanized Canadian brigade - and they numbers will only grow. In Estonia there is located UK military forces.
@@matrixberzins465 But it’s 1000 Canadian personal on a rotation.
Having permanent troops is a big deal
100% agree - but Canadians soon will be more and Latvia building up new large army base. For now they are here on rotation but there is rumors that Latvia might offer to Canada that they stay here with all they family members. Anyway - we in Latvia have some homework to do at first and then try move forward. @@dinosaure_jr4595

The model of stationing forward is real deterrance & it works. West Germany from 1987 called,and they said deterrance works.
Great video ! It would be cool to hear some street interview opinions on the German deployment. Such a video would be cool to know what the common sense is.

Glad to see
Every bit of forward momentum matters .
I have never fought in a war, but even I know that preventing it with all our might is nesessary . The Germans were asleep for nearly 80 years, they have now woken up and decided to fight for the good course this time. And as a German I feel that there is this mentality of „we musst do our duty to protect what is ours to protect“ and it feels good. I’m proud to be a German again. good luck soldiers I hope you will never have to fight.
Lol,Preußen gehört doch jetzt Polen das können die dann auch verteidigen. Über die Oder Neiße Grenze durfte mein Uropa bis zu seinem Tod keinen Fuß mehr setzen,und jetzt sollen wir das auch noch für die Diebe verteidigen?Alles klar. Nein.
Ukraine soll alles kriegen was sie braucht. Wenn die Russen dahinter kommen?Its America,Baby. Naja...Kanada...
The UK troops are in Estonia, Latvia has Canadians , Poland and Rumania have been strengthening their eastern borders. Well-prepared, militant Finns, Sweden with its strong industry and hi-tec armed forces joined us. The Orcs around Kalininberg might be strangled immediately. The navy from Petersburg could be blocked easily. If Ruzzia could not occupy Kharkiv and Kiyv----....finish this sentence yourselves. LOL.
Let's see with troop deployments, because that is legal truble during peace time, but at the very least the sea lanes and the airspace should be more secure given recent events. The Poles and the Germans can deal with Kaliningrad easily, we are not needed there. We have our own troubles to settle.
This video was really helpful, thx a lot :) As a german soldier im thinking about to move to Lithuania volunteerly before it becomes mandatory since i have no wive, kids etc. And it would be nice to be in a new garrison/barracks and not one that u can literally watching how its falling apart xD
But i have one question. How different is lithuanian from russian? cause i would like to learn the local language to at least a basic level. Do lithuanians understand/speak russian or is it something completely different?
Thanks for watching! I think you’ll enjoy it here! Hopefully a native Lithuanian speaker sees this and can answer your question better than I can. A lot of this channel’s viewers are Lithuanian and love discussing language. But I will try…
I know there are some similar words and I remember one Lithuanian language teacher telling our class that it was easier to teach Lithuanian to Russians/Ukrainians due to similarities in grammar or sentence structure.
But it is very much a different language with different roots. Many Lithuanians over 40 will speak Russian. I believe it’s because it was taught in schools as standard curriculum; things changed after Lithuania regained independence. Lithuanians under 40 are more likely to have English as a second language.
Lithuanians will really appreciate your effort to learn the local language! At least it uses Latin script and not Cyrillic, so that is one helpful thing to get started.
I would say besides some grammar similarities, it is very different. It sounds very different. It's baltic language afterall, not slavic. There's no russian "Ы" sound in lithuanian language. Also lithuanians barely move/open their mouths compared to russian or such "drama queen" languages as portugese, spanish or italian (no offense my southern allies). Vowels are usually pronounced fast/short, for example english words "still", "fill", "hill", "know" sounds much more lithuanian than "steel", "feel", "heel", "now", if you get what I mean :)
As Lithuanian learning German for some time I could share that there are some similarities of an idea how to express yourself in German and Lithuanian, but the harder part is words, which are totally different from English or German. Also grammar cases sometimes are similar to German and sometimes not and that makes some confusion😊 It is likely that you’ll learn basic level, it gets harder with further stages 😊
I can’t answer about Russian language.
People over 40 speak russian. under 30 speak mostly only english. Some people around vilnius and ignalina and such also speak russian/polish regardless of their age cause they come from russian/polish families

dont mess with germany 💛
Rukla, lovely place.
Im proud that Germany now finally is on the right side of history. In prior wars, Germans often were conquerers and invaders, but now, they come to help their allies and defend freedom and democracy. Great to see things can change for the better. Hopefully in russia too, one day.
I think it's a great idea for a bunch of reasons. But the timing and execution of the measure...oof.
It's essentially going to be gutting the few really "combat capable" (in terms of manpower and equipment) battalions we still have in Germany. It's actually become a bit of a meme in the "military bubble".
Support and enticement measures for soldiers and (especially) families are also somewhat unclear. And it's also confirmed that the brigade will not be a purely voluntary assignment. Meaning if there's not enough volunteers for the post, people can and will be assigned there. And while that may sound quite usual for say...US soldiers and is in line with Inner-German postings, the idea of permanent "overseas" stationing is entirely new for the Bundeswehr. And there's plenty of manpower issues already.

Dislokacija is NOT a lithuanian word. It is an international or English word which is adopted to lithuanian language - lithuanified. Dislocation - priskyrimas, paskirstymas, išdėstymas, kas geriau tinka pagal kontekstą.
The word probably comes from Latin. It obviously reminds me of the English word „dislocation“ and the German word „Dislokation“ which have the exact same meaning and they come from Latin „dislocare“ which has the same meaning
This will all work out fine.
german pronounciations were not bad! Oberviechtach (Ooh-ber-feeCH-taCH) with a strong H in CH (or alternatively (Ooh-ber-feeH-taH) , pronounce the H like in Klingon

Asthonishing, this is still barely reported. I think many have not yet grasped the historical, political and strategic implications.
Really glad france and Germany are starting to step up more.
They and uk italy spain france too especially will have to double defence spending to make up for u.s. if not leaving NATO they will spend less in europe and let Europeans sort there own security out whilst they focus on china. I think that's fair. If we all increase defence spending we're too much for Russia to deal with without u.s. support. However we need to increase arms production manufacturing and rapid increase of at least 3% defence spending in next 2-3 years. It will be tough financially for europe, but a must all the same.

Hey! I'm loving that you are trying to learn lithuanian, and me a lithuanian can give you a tip on pronounciation, i recommend in the word dislokavimas pronouncing the a softer, cause although it is a hard a but not too harsh. Most lithuanian words have it so you pronounce the first letters harsh and then softer. Linkiu visko geriausio Lietuvoj!
How can there be not enough housing in Lithuania taking into account its depopulation since 1990?
Is this base made outh of concrete?
Größtenteils ja. Allerdings ist es nicht exakt die Bundeswehrkaserne. Es ist einfach nur eine neue Kaserne die als Muster für die zukünftige Deutsche Kaserne gilt.

This will be very interesting. Germans are not exactly explorers and colonizers, never were. Much. But they also don't like to leave their country and culture. Most likely a few German bier halls are already in the works at these locations. Pommes und hahnchen und currywurst und bier - imported from Germany. Although I must say the region East of Germany all has fantastic beer itself.

@@LithuaniaExplained Thank you and keep it up! :)
the cost isnt really an issue in this case ... the intention is to build up german military anyway, so transfering a brigade to Lithuania just frees up facilities here in Germany which then can be used for the build up of the Bundeswehr. So mostly its money we would spend anyway even if we wouldnt move a brigade to our partners.
The only issue I have with this is that we wouldnt need all that buildup and foreign deployment if only we would have politicians with the spine and brain to fully support Ukraine ... so that the UA can deal with Putins regime to the point that russian imperial pipdedream ends permanently.
It destroyed the rest of the German military, because all of the material was cannibalised by other units

@@molk17 No Boshelvism was the ideology of the Boshelviki, commulating in there party members coming to power 1917 and declaring the soviet Union 1922. A state of mind you can descripe with stuff like: melancholy, or psychological terms
@@Tarnatos14 I understand what Bolshevism was and who Bolsheviks were. I come from Eastern Europe and I have pretty good idea. I still think that Bolshevism for Russians became state of mind. They long for their beloved Lenin, Stalin and USSR. They deeply think that Ruski Mir is the best thing they can offer to the world and by “offer” I mean force and smother neighbors with their ideology.
@@molk17 I can accept that. I just think we should call that not Bolshevism, as this is or was a very particular movement. What you mean I would call Pan-Russianism and Imperialism, but if just we call it differently thats not to big of a problem
