Lithuania Gives In To Russia's Threat And Lift The Ban On Kaliningrad by shogsman(m): 9:37am On Jul 15, 2022 |
European Union member Lithuania will allow sanctioned Russian goods to transit its territory on their way to Russia's Kaliningrad exclave, its Foreign Ministry said on Wednesday, reversing its policy after new European Commission guidelines. The new guidelines on Wednesday followed weeks of tension among Moscow, Lithuania and the European Union that tested Europe's resolve to enforce sanctions on Russia. Kaliningrad, which is bordered by EU states and relies on railways and roads through Lithuania for most goods, has had some freight transport from mainland Russia cut off since June 17 under sanctions imposed by Brussels. The sanctions were designed to bar entry into the EU of certain Russian products, such as vodka and steel. Moscow earlier said restricting overland transit of goods from Russia to Kaliningrad amounted to an illegal blockade; Lithuania said it had no choice but to enforce rules imposed by Brussels. This comes after Russia threatened to revoke Lithuania's independence and completely destroy Thier economy and possibly the country itself. https://www.reuters.com/world/lithuania-will-allow-sanctioned-russian-goods-trade-kaliningrad-2022-07-13/?taid=62cf12b5bebb4a00014830dd&utm_campaign=trueAnthem:+Trending+Content&utm_medium=trueAnthem&utm_source=twitter 2 Likes

Opolopoopolonio: Lols. The EU should have given Lithunania thumbs up and urge the country to keep the embargo in place. When you know you are on your own you will receive sense by force. That's the case of Lithuania. 7 Likes |
