Summary
Lithuania will allow China to open a temporary chargé d’affaires office, marking a concrete step toward rebuilding diplomatic ties.
Remigijus Motuzas, chairman of parliament’s foreign affairs committee, said on Thursday that Vilnius had dropped its opposition to Beijing’s lower-level representation plan.
The move signals an effort to repair relations that ruptured over Taiwan’s representation in Lithuania, while stopping short of a full restoration of higher-level diplomatic presence.
