A referendum on the withdrawal of Soviet troops was held in Lithuania on 14 June 1992.[1] Voters were asked whether Soviet troops (which by the time of the referendum had become Russian troops)[2] should unconditionally and immediately withdraw from the country.[2] It was approved by 93% of those voting and 69% of all registered voters, passing the 50% threshold.[2][3]
