The Suwalki Corridor is a 100-kilometer border section between Lithuania and Poland, bordering the Kaliningrad region of Russia in the west and Belarus in the east.

At the end of September, Belarusian dictator Aliaksandr Lukashenka discussed with his military a possible attack on the Suwalki Corridor. In a conversation with the Belarusian military, the dictator said that Lithuania and Poland should not "behave this way" and "speak about the Suwalki Corridor".

NATO considers the Suwalki Corridor to be the most likely target in the event of Russian aggression against the NATO member states.
