‘I am delighted that India has become Lithuania's partner in many areas of cooperation in the region. I firmly believe that in the coming years, our successful political relations will facilitate a dynamic exchange in trade and investments. Moreover, the rich cultural heritage shared by our nations provides a solid foundation for deeper cultural exchanges and mutual understanding, further strengthening the bonds between our people.
I deeply hope that our common values and commitment to freedom and democracy, along with a closer dialogue between the European Union and India, will provide additional impetus for our collaboration.
In light of the current challenging geopolitical landscape, it is imperative to uphold the principles of democracy, a rules-based international order, and fundamental freedoms. The commitment to world peace and security has never been more vital. India, as the world's largest democracy, plays a pivotal role in supporting and sustaining the rules-based global order alongside the free world,‘ said Prime Minister and extended best wishes for continued success, well-being, and prosperity of India and its people.
