The contribution of governments to strengthening bilateral cooperation and strategic partnership was discussed at the meeting of the prime ministers of the two countries in Poland, the Lithuanian Government Chancellery announced.
“The strategic partnership between Lithuania and Poland is the most important guarantee that the Baltic States will never be a separate island from the European Community.” The Lithuanian Seimas declared 2021 the year of the Constitution of May 3 and the Mutual Vow. We will try to use this anniversary to strengthen our neighborhood relations with Poland, “Skvernelis said in the report.
He noted that Poland and Lithuania are important energy and transport connections between continental Europe and northern Europe. There is great potential for collaboration in science, technology, and innovation, and the benefits of this collaboration become even more relevant in the context of the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic.
Negotiations on a new multiannual financial perspective for the European Union (EU) and an economic recovery plan will resume in a few days. Lithuania and Poland will seek important decisions for countries and the region on supporting economic recovery, allocating the necessary funds for cohesion and agriculture.
Prime ministers also regretted that the European Parliament had not listened to the votes of nine countries, including Lithuania and Poland, to oppose the mobility package, some of which are contrary to the principles of the EU internal market. It was agreed with the Polish Prime Minister to jointly defend the interests of its carriers by legal means, including a possible appeal to the EU Court of Justice.
On Wednesday, S. Skvernelis will participate in the commemoration of the anniversary of the Battle of Grunwald in Grunwald. President Gitan Nauseda will also do it.
