“Now I hope that with the help of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs we will achieve that one of the decisions will be made ... amendments will be made to the first four packages of sanctions,” TASS quoted him as saying.
Alikhanov added that the EU could give the Lithuanian authorities new clarifications so that they "do not apply restrictions on the first four packages for Kaliningrad transit."
On June 17, the Lithuanian Railways company notified the Kaliningrad Railways about the termination of the transit of a number of sanctioned goods.
The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, commented on the situation with retaliatory measures against Lithuania.
