AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Vilnius Pink Soup Fest: Lithuania’s capital went fully pink as the three-day Vilnius Pink Soup Fest drew tens of thousands, with organizers estimating 100,000+ visitors and 3+ tons of kefir used for the iconic cold beet soup, šaltibarščiai. Pink Winter Fun: The festival also inspired a bright pink ice rink at Vilnius Akropolis (May 29–31), turning skating into a “giant bowl of pink soup” experience. EES Border Delays: New EU Entry/Exit System checks are already causing long queues for non-EU travellers; a Wizz Air boss urged Brits to arrive three hours early, while France is letting some travellers use e-gates after EES pre-registration to ease bottlenecks. Lithuanian Security for Visitors: Palanga Airport installed an advanced drone detection system and reminded residents and tourists that drones are restricted in a defined no-fly zone, with fines for violations. Cross-Border Crime: Lithuania’s Border Guard detained suspects in a cigarette smuggling case, seizing tens of thousands of packs with Belarusian excise stamps, with investigators saying drones may have been used to move contraband. Regional Travel Risk: A Russian drone incident in Romania injured two people and raised fresh concerns about war spillover near NATO borders.
