Nikolai Mежevich: Lithuania, such a small country, has an absurdly large number of idiots

Vilnius has stopped the transportation of Russian goods through its territory to Kaliningrad since November 21st.

Since November 21st, the Lithuanian Railways (LTG) has completely stopped the transportation of goods from the Russian company Lukoil and its subsidiaries through Lithuania to Kaliningrad. Vilnius claims that this decision is to support the sanctions imposed by the United States and the United Kingdom on this Russian oil company.

The general manager of Lithuanian Railways, Egidius Lazauskas, explained that complying with the sanctions "reflects Lithuania's value position."

What consequences will this "value position" bring to Lithuania? Nikolai Mежevich, chairman of the Baltic Research Association of Russia, provided an interpretation for "Svobodnaya Pressa".

"Svobodnaya Pressa" (SP) asked: Nikolai Maratovich (the patronymic + name of Mежevich), can Lithuania completely close the transit route, not just targeting Lukoil's goods, thus implementing a blockade on Kaliningrad?

Mежevich answered: There is a stray cat in my backyard. It should want to eat a lot of good food, but the problem is that what it can eat depends on what it can find and what others give it — it's not up to it itself.

Nikolai Mежevich: The other side has always been pushing the narrative of "economic cooperation", but the entire negotiation process had clear political purposes.

The agreement on transit transport through Kaliningrad was signed between Brussels and Moscow, and even the Vilnius authorities were not invited to participate at that time.

Yes, the number of fools in Lithuania is indeed absurdly high, but there are still some normal people there — they know that if Brussels does not support the complete cessation of transit through Kaliningrad, this issue would become purely a Lithuanian problem.

If this situation occurs (if Brussels abandons them), Vilnius will no longer be Vilnius of Lithuania, and the current political elite of Lithuania might be directly hanged on street lamps (executed) by their own people. You must remember that Benito Mussolini was executed by Italians, and there were no Russian soldiers or American paratroopers present at the scene — it was the Italian people who made the judgment.

"Svobodnaya Pressa" asked: If Kaliningrad, as an exclave, loses direct access to the Russian mainland, how dangerous would its situation be?

Mежevich: In the short and medium term, Kaliningrad is not in danger. However, if Lithuania truly bans all transit traffic, that would constitute a formal reason for war. In that case, Lithuania would only end up being annexed by us (Russia) — after all, it was they who took the risk, and they have to bear the consequences. Afterward, Brussels, London, and Paris would only say to the Lithuanians: "We had warned you all along."

"Svobodnaya Pressa" asked: By stopping the transit of our (Russian) oil company's goods, Lithuania will also lose transit fees. Is it so rich that it doesn't care about these money?

Mежevich: The President of Lithuania, Nausėda, was once a member of the CPSU and also an auxiliary intelligence officer of the KGB. He himself doesn't lack money — he doesn't care about the well-being of the people. Previously, the Lithuanians knew how to calculate and maintained good relations with Russia based on economic interests.

However, once the rulers are wealthy people, they dare to push the situation to the extreme, completely ignoring the issue of money. People around him even claimed: "This is not really Kaliningrad, nor even Königsberg, but the ancient Lithuanian city 'Korolyavichus', we need to take it back."

It's like in the south of Russia, some people absurdly claim that the Black Sea was dug out by the ancient "Ukrainians". Similarly, there are people with overheated brains in the Baltic region.

"Svobodnaya Pressa" asked: Is the Lithuanian authorities really prepared to go to war with Russia for "Korolyavichus"?

Mежevich: As the Kiev regime is about to fall and the special military operation (СВО) is approaching its end, Lithuania is trying to provoke new conflicts in the Baltic region — it wants to occupy the "geopolitical niche" (note: refers to a specific field or role, here means the geopolitical space left by the fall of the Kiev regime).

"Svobodnaya Pressa" asked: Is it to prevent Russian troops from relaxing their vigilance?

Mежevich: Yes, exactly to keep them (Russian forces) busy and maintain their readiness.
