Foreign Minister of Lithuania - Linas LinkeviΔius

Judging from the expressions of alarm coming from eastern Europe it could tilt the balance of power decisively in favour of Russia as regional tensions rise. But is that just scaremongering? Stephen Sackur talks to Lithuaniaβs Foreign Minister Linas Linkevicius who recently described himself as "very afraid" of Russia's intentions in the region.
