First, speaking about China

    "The President of the Vilnius Industry and Business Association, Sigitas Besagirskas, revealed on the "Lietuvos ryto" TV show "Nauja diena" how business evaluates the changes introduced by the conservatives.

 

     Lithuania is the only country in the world that managed to get into fight with China. How based on values it is is another topic, but the fact is that no one in the world got into fight in the way that Lithuania did. If we talk about industry, and the industries in the investment are not for the domestic market, they are usually for export and export in a broad sense.

 

     Those companies that invest usually don't build the first factory, it's the fifth, tenth or something. This means that they have a connection with China in one way or another, so they simply won't choose Lithuania and I think they won't choose it for a while: they won't choose this government and will wait for a decision from another government - whether it's the same or not - or something will change. The government itself does not decide why they got into fight, but the fact that we got into fight made us look strange, at least unfavorably in the eyes of the world, so I think that for at least five years we will not receive anything from industrial investments, except domestic investments - from those Lithuanian companies that will expand internally. But I am very skeptical about foreign countries."
