Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine remains a major threat to the safety of journalists. They continue to be killed or subjected to arbitrary detention, torture & enforced disappearance, while media workers and infrastructure have repeatedly come under Russian attack.

On November 2, 1918, the right for women to vote was written to the Lithuanian 🇱🇹 Constitution. Lithuania became one of the first countries in Europe to grant women this fundamental right. Five women were elected to the Constituent Assembly of Lithuania in 1920.

Russia is deliberately turning everyday life in Ukraine into a nightmare. Yesterday, a railway station in Dnipro, where people were simply waiting for a train, turned into a killing ground. Civilians, including children, were also killed and injured in Chernihiv and Kremenchuk. The attacks continued overnight.
And yet we are still expected to believe that Russia wants peace?
Russia is pursuing its war of destruction, and it will not stop unless it is forced to. It must be confronted with strength, not appeased. #Ukraine needs more weapons, stronger air defences, help preparing for winter and our unwavering support.

Lithuania strongly condemns Russia’s latest attacks on #Ukraine. Strikes on Kyiv, Rivne State Humanitarian University, and civilian infrastructure have claimed lives and caused widespread destruction. Russia must cease its aggression, withdraw its forces, and face accountability.
We had the honour of co-hosting a special screening of the documentary “Bialiatski/ Unbroken”. The film tells a powerful story of courage and the unbreakable human spirit. Lithuania 🇱🇹 continues to stand with the people of Belarus in their struggle for freedom and democracy.
Very productive meeting with the Head of Secretariat, Ambassador G. Molnár and his team of the Wassenaar Arrangement in preparation for Lithuania's Plenary Chairmanship in 2027. Looking forward to close cooperation in the run-up to and throughout Lithuania's Chairmanship.
At the Warsaw Human Dimension Conference, #NB8 countries hosted a side event addressing transnational repression across the OSCE region. Lithuania 🇱🇹 remains committed to protecting those targeted in exile and ensuring that perpetrators are held accountable.
Findings from the recent #MoscowMechanism report on Russia’s treatment of 🇺🇦 children were presented at the #WarsawHDC side event.
Independent experts concluded that Russia's systemic indoctrination & militarization of 🇺🇦 children may amount to crimes against humanity.
At the Warsaw Human Dimension Conference, 🇱🇹 Permanent Representative @KudzmanasK emphasised the importance of holding Russia accountable for systematic and widespread IHL & IHRL violations in the context of its ongoing aggression against Ukraine.
