Tough response to Baltic nation’s decision to exchange diplomatic offices with Taiwan puts under EU under pressure

The EU has been critical of China’s human rights abuses, but treads a careful line. Tit-for-tat sanctions saw ratification of a long-negotiated trade deal“The use of coercion by China on Lithuania is likely to tarnish China’s image and standing in Europe and in the wider world, and it is unlikely to achieve the objective it has, at least in terms of reversing Lithuania ’s policy towards Taiwan,” said Prof Steve Tsang director of the SOAS China Institute.

OK Lithuania, where can we buy your goods. Will visit soon!

EU, stop dreaming to keep business and politics apart, it doesn't work in China. BoycottChina

I'm speechless seeing myself having my first paycheck after I have been screwed so many times, may God Almighty 🙏 bless you and your team Lisattownnsend

oops, lithuania shall not be happy to find out after all the disruption but taiwan still enjoy the trade benefit from china as taiwan's biggest trading partners

Good. Just stop meddling with China’s affairs. It’s not that hard🤷🏻‍♂️

The EU will just end up blocking all Chinese trade wth Europe. China's loss.

Lithuania doesn't need sh*t from China. No biggie.

Nope, it doesn’t. Lithuania is China’s punching bag and Europe’s firing arm. This cat & mouse game has been on for long. None of the other European countries will enter into a trade war with China directly.

. . a simple message to Xi Jingping and his CCP Central Committee . . . Europe will have no part of your intimidation . .

Calm down guys..

Folks, modern China was built on its abandonment of the USSR & turn to the Nixon/Ford Thatcher-era US/UK Commonwealth trading system 1970s. The US/UK offshored its entire labor force to Asia just before cocaiinne spread thru opioid USA. Can China & Taiwan just relax be friends?

Lithuania is a defacto Nazi state that helped Nazi Germany slaughter almost all of the Jews in Lithuania. It build a lot of monuments to Lithuanian Nazis but not a single Holocaust memorial. Lithuania should be kicked out of the EU and NATO.

Dam West taiwan is getting agressive.

wow

Support Lithuania. $& China
