“You can also look at it from another angle: since many of these things are being decided in Brussels, which is not yet behaving very clearly, but there are shipments that go through Russia by rail, which pass through us already in transit to the European Union.

Earlier it was reported that Lithuania expanded restrictions on the transit of goods to the Kaliningrad region, banning the transportation of cement, alcohol and other goods from Russia through its territory, in connection with the entry into force of European sanctions on them.
The representative of the European Commission, Dan Ferry, at a briefing in Brussels later noted that the EC did not give Lithuania any new clarifications on transit to the Kaliningrad region.
