On Lithuania’s chairing the EU
Statement by the YABLOKO party, June 27, 2013
Lithuania’s chairing the European Union is a significant political and historical event. We hope that it will be fruitful.
The Eastern Partnership summit scheduled on November is very important. This event and the development of the programme in the right direction may lead to positive changes in the whole region and facilitate avoiding military solutions where they are still probable.
Peaceful, non-threatening other neighbours and gradual integration of the ex-Soviet countries into the European Union corresponds, in our view, to the interests of the nations of the whole “Greater Europe”.
We are wishing to Lithuanian politicians and diplomats much success it such important work.
Sergei Mitrokhin,
YABLOKO Chair
