"Lithuania and Poland have the same interests within the European Union, and I am ready to cooperate to the benefit of both countries. Lithuania is prepared to tackle the issues of concern to both countries, including those of concern to ethnic minorities. Respecting its all citizens no matter which ethnic minority they belong to, Lithuania seeks to settle their concerns as soon as possible."
