Busy day in #Cannes with Vilnius Mayor Valdas Benkunskas at #MIPIM forum gathering some 20 thousand delegates from cities worldwide. A great chance to present #Vilnius as a vibrant, modern, digital and innovative city, one of the best places to create, to invest and to live in Europe!

Highly symbolic on 🇱🇹#Lithuania’s Independence Restoration Day to meet in Paris 🇲🇩#Moldova’s outstanding President Maia Sandu. Lithuania is and will be at the side of Moldova in defending its security, democracy and European choice. And together we stand with 🇺🇦#Ukraine till victory.

With 🇪🇺EU27 Ambassadors in France standing together with 🇺🇦Ukraine and our dear colleague Vadym Omelchenko. Three years on, we are together. On the side of truth, on the side of justice, on the side of humanity. On the side of victory against aggression, barbarism and cynicism. #DefendUkraine

With French Defence Minister Sébastien Lecornu 🇫🇷 we discussed the forthcoming White Paper aimed at increasing EU defence industry output and helping EU Member States fill defence capability gaps, as well as 🇪🇺 space initiatives, and the importance of supporting Ukraine.

At the meeting with Jean-Noël Barrot, the Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs 🇫🇷, we talked about the Big Bang in European defence and the EU 🇪🇺 added value for defence, strengthened military support for Ukraine 🇺🇦 and the peace through strength principle, as well as the upcoming White Paper.

Great pleasure to see 🇪🇺 Defence and Space Commissioner @andriuskubilius.ec.europa.eu in Paris, where he today met with French Foreign Minister @jnbarrot.bsky.social, Defence Minister Lecornu and 🇫🇷 defence & space industry. A time of definition for Europe’s future and its ability to step up its game.

Warm and touching celebrations of 🇱🇹 #Lithuania’s State Restoration Day in Paris with Lithuanian community and our closest friends in France. Great honour to award the State Award to historian Françoise Thom and to open photo exhibition of Antanas Liutkus on our exile diplomats in 🇫🇷. #Vasario16

#HistoricDay. This morning Baltic States successfully disconnected from BRELL electricity system – this is the most important step in the history of independent Lithuanian energy. Synchronising with the European electricity system will ensure energy security, stability and reliability for 🇱🇹, 🇱🇻 & 🇪🇪.

En 2025, 🇱🇹 célèbre le 150e anniversaire de Mikalojus Konstantinas Čiurlionis, artiste et compositeur visionnaire ayant fusionné peinture et musique. Son héritage perdure à travers des centaines de compositions musicales et d’œuvres d’art inspirées par la mythologie, le cosmos et la nature.

FM Kęstutis Budrys: 💬 Lithuania commits to allocate between 5% and 6% of GDP to defense in 2026-2030. The decision has been made today at the State Defense Council. 1/2

🇱🇹 Laba diena! 🇫🇷 Bonjour à tous ! Nous sommes ravis de lancer notre compte Bluesky officiel. Suivez-nous pour découvrir des actualités, des événements et des informations sur la #Lituanie ainsi que nos activités en France. #Ambassade

A good debate last night with the European Affairs Committee of the 🇫🇷French Senate on the consequences for the 🇪🇺EU of the 2nd Trump presidency. I argued that we should turn our vulnerabilities in terms of defence, energy and digital/AI into strengths and areas of stronger cooperation with the 🇺🇸US.

Aujourd‘hui nous commémorons le 13 janvier 1991, la Journée des défenseurs de la liberté et de l‘indépendance de la #Lituanie🇱🇹. Pour marquer ces événements tragiques, des myosotis ont “fleuri” dans le jardin de la Lituanie à #Paris. Pour la mémoire des héros et pour la victoire de l’#Ukraine🇺🇦.

As #Lithuania🇱🇹 marks 34th anniversary of Freedom Defenders Day, the flame of #freedom also burns in the windows of our Embassy in Paris. In memory of fallen heros, in celebration of victory over Soviet tyranny, in solidarity with #Ukraine🇺🇦 and its fight till victory.

Labas! I am new here at Bluesky and look forward to interacting with you. As the world is quickly going mad, hope to rediscover here more reason, more responsibility, more critical thinking and human decency. Standing for 🇺🇦#Ukraine, rooting for its victory, defending rule of law and human rights.
