Few places symbolize freedom more powerfully than the Vilnius TV Tower, where brave defenders gave their lives for Lithuania’s freedom in 1991.
That’s why #America250 feels so fitting here.
Happy 250th, the #USA.
🇱🇹🇺🇸
1/2 A new wolf has arrived in #Vilnius. Created by Italian artist Davide Rivalta & a gift from Embassy of Italy, the sculpture connects Vilnius and Rome—two cities whose stories are inseparable from the wolf. It marks 35 years of restored #Lithuania–#Italy diplomatic relations.
Honored to welcome ice dance duo Saulius Ambrulevičius and Allison Reed, and Lithuanian Skating Federation President Vytautas Jasutis at the Embassy in #Prague today! 🇱🇹⛸️ Wishing our skaters an amazing start at the @ISU_Figure World Championship!
So this tree must have taken root around 1626… and just imagine what it has witnessed: the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, the partitions, the uprisings, the national awakening, WWI & independence in 1918, WWII & occupations - then finally independence in 1990… What a life! 🌳
End of a remarkable State Visit by the President of the #CzechRepublic to #Lithuania. Marked by genuine warmth, shared values, & strong alignment, the visit reaffirmed 🇨🇿-🇱🇹 partnership as we celebrate 35 yrs of restored diplomatic relations & look toward even closer cooperation
January 1st marks #Lithuania|n #FlagDay 🇱🇹
Living abroad, I’ve often seen our flag displayed in varied shades. A gentle reminder for future displays:
let the #yellow glow like a vibrant dawn,
the #green stay rich like a lush forest,
and the #red be deep and true, like blood.
#Čiurlionis’s diplomatic letter to the world — w/out seals or stamps.
As we close the 150th jubilee year of Lithuania’s greatest artist, this is my take on how he paved the way for Lithuanian diplomatic subjectivity long before Lithuania re-emerged on the political map of Europe

Welcome, 🇩🇪Federal Defence Minister Boris Pistorius, to 🇱🇹 again! It's the 6th visit already and that really underlines the strength of the 🇱🇹 🇩🇪 relationship!
Great pleasure to welcome 🇩🇪Minister of Defence Boris Pistorius in @LRSeimas. His powerful words & determination in securing the NATO Eastern flank resonate deeply. #Lithuania is committed to welcoming & hosting the #German brigade on our soil and strengthening our close cooperation further. 🇱🇹🤝🇩🇪
Always plenty to discuss with our German friends & allies, and always a pleasure to welcome 🇩🇪 DefMin Boris Pistorius in Vilnius. Had a good exchange on the progress of deployment of 🇩🇪 brigade in Lithuania, regional security, our support to Ukraine, and countering Russia's aggression.
We must not become accustomed & numb to Russia’s daily terror – that is exactly what 🇷🇺 is counting on.
Grateful to #Czech soldiers serving in #Lithuania as part of #NATO's eFP under German leadership.🇨🇿🤝🇱🇹 Your bravery strengthens our collective security. #Czechia’s commitment to NATO’s Eastern flank is a true testament to shared responsibility. Thank you! #StrongerTogether
