AFP , ANTAVILIAI, LITHUANIA

The register shows that the Lithuanian state bought the property in January 2007.

BNS said it has since served as a Lithuanian intelligence training center.

The Lithuanian security department refused to confirm that.

A dozen cars were parked inside the fenced-off property when AFP visited. There was no plaque identifying its current function and no one was visible at the site.

Former communist US allies Romania and Poland have faced similar claims about secret US sites in the past, denied by their governments — although the head of a Polish parliamentary inquiry said he had “justified suspicions.”
