The foreign minister said that this is a good result, given that Taiwan is a country with a population of 20 million and that we have only spent about a year on re-establishing relations with this country, according to a question by MP Arturas Skardzius on what Lithuania has done with Taiwan. What have you done to attract investment, what are the exports, what benefits have you been able to gain from cooperation with Taiwan? I have expectations that we will be able to overtake what we have been building for decades with undemocratic and authoritarian China, where our exports were around 300 million euros. We have more than 50 million dollars of exports of BNS to Taiwan Landsbergis, said today.
He acknowledges that economic and trade relations with Taiwan and other Asian countries were weak in the past.
Lithuania's name is heard louder than ever in Asia and interest in trade relations is as strong as ever, the minister said.
