We must stay vigilant at all times to ensure that no one infringes on our values

Political and military leaders gathered in the training area to witness the culmination of the exercise as part of a Distinguished Visitors event.

Grand Quadriga 24 has been taking place across Lithuania throughout May. Three brigades of the German 10th Panzerdivision honed their skills in the deployment of troops and equipment, sustainment of these force elements, and mechanised operations, including live firing.

“NATO continually ensures the freedom and security of all 32 Alliance nations. We must stay vigilant at all times to ensure that no one infringes on our values,” said General Guglielmo Luigi Miglietta, Commander JFC Brunssum. “Exercises such as Quadriga showcase NATO’s ability to rapidly deploy multi-national forces to key strategic points in our collective defence, a crucial component in discouraging future hostilities. This deterrence is what keeps NATO Allies safe and prosperous.”
