Ex-head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Latvia Gulbis spoke about the situation with the restriction of transit to Kaliningrad

“This (limitation of transit to the Kaliningrad region. -

On June 17, the Lithuanian Railways notified the Kaliningrad Railways of stopping the transit of a number of sanctioned goods.

Lithuanian Foreign Minister Gabrielius Landsbergis said that lifting restrictions on transit to the Kaliningrad region is the prerogative of the EC.

Press Secretary of the President of Russia Dmitry Peskov said that Russia is determined to resolve the situation with the transport blockade of Kaliningrad by Lithuania.

According to him, Moscow's position is communicated to the state through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
