Foreign Policy

Lithuania's foreign policy prioritizes NATO collective defense, EU solidarity, and supporting democracy in its Eastern neighborhood. It has been a leading voice on Belarusian democracy (particularly after the disputed 2020 election and subsequent crackdown), Ukrainian sovereignty, and resistance to Chinese economic coercion.

Key priorities include strengthening NATO's eastern flank, energy independence (Lithuania built an LNG terminal to reduce dependence on Russian gas), digital transformation, and the Three Seas Initiative. Lithuania is also active in the Community of Democracies and promotes democratic governance in the Eastern Partnership.

MUN Delegate Guide

As Lithuania, be bold and principled. Lithuania has shown that small states can take on great powers -- your Taiwan office decision and your stance on Belarus demonstrate courage in foreign policy.

Coordinate with Estonia and Latvia (Baltic trio), Poland (a key bilateral partner sharing Kaliningrad border concerns), and the wider NATO and EU blocs. Lithuania often aligns with the US and UK on security matters.

Lead on democracy support (Belarus, Eastern Partnership), resistance to economic coercion (your China-Taiwan experience is a model), energy independence, and NATO collective defense. Reference the Suwalki Gap -- the narrow corridor between Kaliningrad and Belarus that is NATO's most vulnerable point -- to underscore the strategic stakes. Be direct about threats from Russia and authoritarian states.
