Taiwan enjoys strong support for its participation in the international arena from Lithuania as well as two donations of a total of 260,000 COVID-19 vaccine doses from the Baltic country, the MOFA said. The reciprocal gestures are evidence of the virtuous circle defining exchanges between the two sides, the ministry added.
 
In a tweet on its official Twitter account, the MOFA said “NDC Minister Kung took a timeout in #Lithuania from #Taiwan's trade & investment tour of 3 #EU members to donate 10 police drones & 400 tech blankets. Great to have on hand border officers & 11 politicians like @togulb, @LRSeimas Deputy Speaker Mitalas & @MatasMaldeikis.” (DL-E)
