Why did Lithuania become a "European prostitution"? See how it makes a good hand a mess

How mad can a country be to choose to let one-third of its women go to the sea to work in the sex trade, including about two-tenths of minors.

Far from being ashamed, the government has soldered the label of the porn industry to itself, calling itself the "G-spot of Europe" in order to reap high profits from it.

What made this country, once known as the "little bully of Europe", fall here? And go further and further on the path of depravity?

Lithuania's glorious past

In fact, before it became a prostitution, Lithuania also had a glorious history.

Lithuania is located in the middle of Europe and has a land area of only 65,300 square kilometers.

According to the 2024 census, Lithuania has only 2.87 million people, which is a small amount compared to the surrounding European powers.

It is such a small country that once had a glorious past.

The rise of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania was also one of the most high-profile historical events in the Middle Ages.

At that time, Lithuania was under the leadership of Gediminas, with strong military strength and unique strategic vision.

Not only is the domestic government very stable, but it is also expanding abroad through wars and diplomacy.

During this period, the West Smolensk region, southern Poland and Kiev were all under Lithuanian rule.

By the middle of the 14th century, Lithuania had even become the largest country in Europe.

Between the 16th and 17th centuries, Lithuania also cooperated with Poland, and neither Tsarist Russia nor Germany was their opponent.

The two countries joined forces to win many battles, and later merged the countries to form the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.

The establishment of the federation not only integrated the military strength and scientific and technological resources of Lithuania and Poland, but also promoted cultural exchanges and progress.

The strength of both countries has increased significantly, and the Federation has become an extremely leading region in Europe in the military, political, and cultural fields.

However, this prosperity did not last long, and at the end of the 18th century, the Commonwealth was dissolved due to internal and external troubles, and Lithuania became a colony of several major powers.

Tsarist Russia, Prussia, and Austria divided the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.

Since then, Lithuania has lost its language and culture, and despite its independent self-consciousness, it has tried many times to revolt, which have ended in failure.

It was not until the beginning of the 20th century that the Lithuanian people, after more than a century of hard work, finally found an opportunity to regain power and put an end to centuries of oppression.

However, after many divisions, the people of the Lithuanian region not only did not understand the language, but also had great differences in their behavior and habits.

As a result of this situation, Lithuania's power gradually weakened, and it was no longer possible to return to the glory of centuries ago.

Reduced to the slum of European prostitution

Perhaps many people do not understand that even if Lithuania is economically and politically weakened after being partitioned many times, it will not become a "European prostitution", right?

This also starts with Lithuania's national policy.

After breaking away from the control of the Soviet Union, Austria and other countries, Lithuania's development did not increase but declined. This is easier to understand, after all, as an effect, even if an independent regime is obtained, but under the control of other countries for many years, the actual system is simply not enough to support the country's operation and development.

Soon, a large number of social problems emerged in Lithuania, the people's wages were difficult to maintain a normal life, the unemployment rate was high, etc.

Not only that, due to the collapse of major industrial enterprises after breaking away from the Soviet colony, the industrial fault line is serious. As well as the fact that the land area is difficult to meet the demand for arable land, Lithuania's industry and agriculture are very weak.

In order to revitalize the domestic economy, Lithuania began to seek a path of development.

Originally, Lithuania wanted to develop tourism, but it was still constrained by its land area and backward technology, and the manpower, resources, and technology that could be used to develop tourism were insufficient.

Lithuania tried to join the European Union again, and although it got what it wanted, after entering the European Union, not only did it not bring about a turnaround for its own economy, but on the contrary, it caused the people's economic pressure to be even greater, and they could not make ends meet.

Under great pressure to survive, Lithuanian male citizens either chose to develop in other countries, or stayed in the country and drank heavily until they committed suicide in desperation.

At this time, a completely new path came into the sights of the Lithuanian government, and that was - the sex industry.

While other countries are afraid that this industry will not be clean, the Lithuanian government has done the opposite, seeing this industry as the key to saving the country's economy.

Since then, the Lithuanian government's "riotous operations" have continued, first of all, requiring women working in the red light district to register and pay taxes to the state every month, otherwise they are not allowed to engage in this industry, and they will even be judged as illegal.

In other words, X transaction is not legal, as long as the tax is paid on time, it is legal, and vice versa.

Such a decision is enough to leave people speechless, but the Lithuanian government has not stopped, and they have even hyped up the country's sex industry, praising its ability to solve employment problems, increase fiscal revenue, and attract tourists.

Even if it is called a "European prostitution", Lithuania does not care at all, and a few years ago, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism openly wrote in an advertisement that "Lithuania is the G-spot of Europe." ”

Can the industry save Lithuania?

But can such a decision really save the country from peril?

The answer is no.

It may seem that the industry will bring some income to the domestic economy in the short term, but in the long run, the social problems caused by it will drag the country into an even more desperate abyss.

First, women in the workforce have no human rights. According to statistics, about 1.5 million women in Lithuania, about 30% have worked in the sex industry. Of these 500,000 women, about 100,000, or 20 percent of the working women, are still minors.

Women in the sex industry suffer a variety of psychological and physical tortures, and in 2021, Lithuania had the third highest HIV prevalence rate in the European Union, and the World Health Organization was helpless.

In addition, the development of the sex industry has led to high rates of human trafficking and sex crimes, with 2017 survey data showing that an average of 315 people are serving prison sentences per 100,000 people in Lithuania.

The country has a population of about 2 million, but more than 10,000 women are trafficked to the United Kingdom and other European countries to work in the sex industry.

Finally, the high rates of illness and crime, as well as low employment, have exacerbated the loss of population within Lithuania.

Men can't find a way to develop in this country, while women are afraid to stay in a dirty country, and they have chosen to leave their homeland and seek better development opportunities in other countries.

Such a country, if it does not make changes, will only end up destroying itself.

summary

Lithuania has also experienced glory and fallen into a trough, and after numerous successes and failures, although it still stands on the stage of international politics, its influence has declined significantly.

For the sake of national development, they actually want to save the country through the industry, and countless women have become tools to make money, and there is no human rights at all.

The Lithuanian government, on the other hand, has not only failed to curb this situation, but has allowed the sex industry to develop and trumpeted the country's economy to women's flesh.

Such disregard for human rights and madness have no way of revitalizing the country.

Lithuania will eventually drown in the long river of history again and reap the consequences.
