The Foreign Ministry's statement on false information in the international media
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Lithuania announces that the information in the international media that the administration of the United States of America has allegedly requested the country to change the name of the Taiwanese representative office in Vilnius is false.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has never received such a request. This looks like a disinformation campaign. It is likely that the purpose of this misinformation is to create tensions between allies at a time when Lithuania announces new support for Ukraine. The name of the representative office is a sovereign decision of the parties involved. In addition, the U.S. administration strongly supports Lithuania's values-based foreign policy, as confirmed by the U.S. representative, who is quoted in the article.
