“I think we have done a lot to make Lithuania more resistant to Russia’s energy and economic blackmail. And today, when I look at some other countries in Western Europe, I see a long way that Lithuania has come a little longer,” Nauseda said.

He reminded that Lithuania, unlike other European countries, declared itself completely independent of Russian energy carriers.
“You can see that a policy that had no illusions about Russia worked much better than the so-called ‘real policy’ that is now the headache of some Western states. I understand their position, but this once again confirms that Lithuania has gone the right way. And the sooner other Western European countries choose the same path, the better and easier it will be for everyone,” he said.
