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.

They don't have any sense,infact they are more foolish than the rest of NATO, without any one asking they decided to pick a fight with Russia that would definitely annihilate them In a bid to get some attention from the west and USA,they set themselves up to be a cannon folder until the EU warned them not to drag themselves into hot fire because they won't come and save them
