"Peasant party member Valius Ąžuolas, a member of the Seimas, thinks that Belarus will not suffer any losses, but only Lithuania will suffer." What losses can Belarus already suffer? , - he told the lrytas.lt portal.
According to the member of the Seimas, seeing such a direction of Lithuania's foreign policy, Belarus simply has no other way. "The saddest thing is that we are ruining our own economy. We do not care about the railways, the port or the taxes paid to the state, the principles that are most important to us. Our railways do not really make big profits, so it would automatically become unprofitable - redundancies would start, maybe even the sale of the company. When approving the Government, I in the Seimas gave a speech that the rulers would do: what did they do with Mazeikiu Nafta and other companies? Initially, they depreciated, made unprofitable, and then sold. Now that scheme is being implemented with the railways, the port,” - V.Ąžuolas is convinced.
According to the politician, Lithuania should follow the example of Germany, which, according to the member of the Seimas, always says that with Russia, Germany's own economy and energy issues are more important and higher priority than the foreign policy of the entire European Union (EU).
"Our politicians, who in the same way as Belarus, are treating China and Taiwan. Last year, China had bought grain from us for 70 million euros and now we no longer need it. Our foreign policy leads our country to economic destruction, "V.Ąžuolas assured.
He also called for lessons to be learned from Polish, Latvian and Estonian foreign policy. “Why are they pursuing a foreign policy that does not harm their states? When President Dalia Grybauskaitė became friends with the Dalai Lama, Taiwan, while the Dalai Lama was not accepted by either Latvia or Estonia, our exports to China have declined sharply since then.
If we want to pay such a price for our foreign policy, politicians should not forget that the price is paid by the whole nation, not just them. I understand that it does not affect them personally - their salary will not decrease, the wallet will not thin. But the nation is affected because it drives the country to losses," - said V.Ąžuolas."
