Poland, Lithuania and Latvia are considering triggering NATO's Article 4 over the crisis unfolding at their borders with Belarus, as thousands of people stuck in freezing conditions continue to try to cross into Europe.
Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki told the Polish Press Agency on Sunday that the three countries were in talks on whether to trigger the article, which calls for consultation when "the territorial integrity, political independence or security of any of the parties is threatened."
A NATO official said last week that the military alliance was monitoring the escalating situation and that "NATO allies stand in full solidarity with Poland and other allies affected by Belarus' instrumentalization of migrants."
