All in all, 560 state border markers have been installed, Lithuania's State Border Guard Service said on Monday.
The marking has cost Lithuania around EUR 1.216 million. The Baltic country has a 253.7km land border with Russia, and both countries also share an 18.5 km border on the Curonian Spit and a 22.2 km sea border.
The border with Russia was Lithuania's last stretch of the state border that needed marking as the borders with Belarus, Poland and Latvia had been marked long ago.
