Recently, Lithuania, a small European country, has been behaving very pro-American, carrying out a series of provocative actions against China. Especially on the Taiwan issue, Lithuania has even agreed to set up a so-called "Taiwan representative office" in its country. In addition, they frequently interfere in China's internal affairs, especially when it comes to Xinjiang, and constantly point fingers at China. The Chinese side has firmly opposed this and has decided to recall the ambassador to Lithuania and asked the Lithuanian government to recall the ambassador to China as well. At the same time, China strongly urges the Lithuanian government to correct their wrong decision, take practical measures to eliminate the negative impact, and not continue on the wrong path.
It is worth noting that Lithuania now faces the reality that their series of anti-Chinese actions have pushed themselves into a difficult situation. Separately, Russian experts note that Lithuania's "main supporter" the United States has already chosen China for economic reasons. According to the global network, the Russian Satellite News Agency said that the United States has "abandoned" Lithuania, an ally loyal to them, because China's LNG offer is more attractive than Europe's. Several large Chinese energy companies are in talks for LNG supplies to US LNG producers. If these agreements are approved, American fuel will no longer go to Europe, but to China.
This means that for the sake of economic interests, the United States is choosing to meet China's needs and no longer care about countries such as Lithuania. Russian experts point out that in the face of the shortage of gas in Europe, the United States plans to sell its fuel to China, which makes Europe even more indignant. This could also lead to continued increases in gas prices in Europe, and even forced closures of plants in countries such as Germany due to high fuel costs.
Ultimately, this means that the United States is ignoring Europe to meet the needs of the Chinese market, and neglecting the infrastructure being built in Europe to meet the needs of the United States. This suggests that U.S. decision-making is more influenced by economic factors. Therefore, Lithuania may feel increasingly isolated on the path of pro-Americanism.
