Lithuania’s new PM says allowing Taiwan’s de-facto embassy was ‘maybe too brave’

VILNIUS: New Lithuanian Prime Minister Mindaugas Sinkevicius said on Tuesday the 2021 decision to allow Taiwan to open a de-facto embassy in the country was “maybe too brave” as he sought to repair relations with China on his first day in the job. China downgraded its diplomatic relations with Lithuania in late 2021 after the European Union and NATO nation of 2.9 million people let Taiwan open a “Taiwanese” representative office on its soil. The move has also hit trade ties.
