Lithuanian Foreign Minister Gabrielius Landsbergis stated that Donald Trump’s recent, more conciliatory remarks regarding Ukraine will be evaluated based on actual diplomatic efforts to resolve the conflict with Russia. Landsbergis emphasized the importance of tangible progress in ending the war, rather than focusing solely on the language used. He acknowledged the ongoing debate surrounding US aid to Ukraine and the potential shifts in Washington’s approach. Lithuania, a strong supporter of Ukraine, remains cautiously optimistic but stressed the need for continued assistance. Landsbergis indicated that Vilnius will be watching closely for diplomatic initiatives demonstrating a commitment to Ukraine’s security. Ultimately, the value of Trump's rhetoric will be determined by its contribution to a peaceful resolution, not the words themselves. The Baltic nation seeks clarification on future US policy towards the region.
