  1. > “We urge your government to realise its wrongdoing and we urge Lithuanian leadership to put right the mistakes and not to underestimate the resolute, the will and the capability of Chinese people to safeguard their national security and territorial integrity,” he said.

    “No!” – Lithuania probably.

  2. Lithuania joins an elite group of US-backed Latin American dictatorships such as Belize, Honduras, Paraguay, Haiti, Guatemala and Pacific micro-states Marshall Islands, Tuvalu, Nauru… Good for them.

  3. Imagine what the CCP would say if Lithuania demanded they change the names of embassies within China. Time for the west to treat China like they treat us.

  4. China: “omg, RENAME YOUR TAIWAN OFFICE NOW, OR ELSE!”

    Lithuania: *message seen*

    China: “LITHUANIA ARE YOU DEAF”

    Lithuania: *message seen*

  5. Whatever China is talking about, there is nothing for us to lose really, while they lose plenty.

    We import 1.3bil from China, while exporting 300~ mil. So in reality, China for us is a parasite state in the first place.

    And like 1/4 of that export is actually wheat, which is a raw material with a stock price attached, and can be pretty much sold anywhere in the first place.

    And can’t really sanction us either, because that is not how the EU work in first place.

  6. It’s fun when China is the one writing the strongly worded letter 🙂

    I hope Lithuania sends an ASCII middle finger back
