Arnoldas Pranckevičius, Lithuania’s permanent representative to the EU, addressed the authorities of the only EU member state that did not support the allocation of 50 billion euros to Ukraine.
“I would very much like to wish this EU member state to never experience the war that the people of Ukraine are going through now, that its cities are not bombed, its citizens are not killed, that the aggressor country does not occupy its territories. I wish that this state would not have to ask others for solidarity and face vetoes from allies for vital assistance in moments of the most urgent need,” he said.
Pranckevičius added that the EU is strong because of solidarity and mutual trust: “If you are not ready for either, there is only one right solution – to leave,” he concluded.
