Title: The Lithuanian Choice: Leap Forward or Isolation?
Lithuania, a small country, has recently stirred up the storm. The list released by the Ministry of Defense directly refers to China and Russia as "threats", which is simply ridiculous. This move is full of political tricks, and the small action of holding on to foreign self-respect, even wanting to touch China and Russia, what is the intention?
This behavior of Lithuania seems to be a provocation to China, but it shows more of their inferiority. They think they can strike a balance between China and Russia, but in reality they are just an inconsequential supporting role. This kind of bluff can only make people laugh, and China and Russia may not bother to pay attention to it. However, from the perspective of international politics, there is more to ponder behind this.
First of all, the internal political wrestling in Lithuania is obvious. In this way, they try to consolidate power and win votes. It is naïve for such a small country to think that it can reap some benefits on the international political stage. For them, however, it may be a gesture they have made for political reasons. But in fact, this approach only leads them deeper into isolation.
Secondly, Lithuania's attitude towards China has long been influenced by Trump's policies. They tend to the ** line and have a suspicious and even hostile attitude towards China. The ripples caused by Trump's war are still affecting countries today, and Lithuania is one of them. And their behavior may only be to pander to the United States, but they ignore their own insignificance in international politics.
In the face of such a situation, the Chinese side has shown great restraint and wisdom. We will not force support, but we will not tolerate provocative roles either. This kind of clever little act is just a small matter at the fingertips of a finger for China. For Lithuania, however, it can mean more risks and consequences.
Lithuania's attempt to find a balance between China and the United States has invisibly deepened its own isolation. They try to choose between China and Russia, but this could lead to a situation in which both sides are offended. The development of relations between the two countries requires Lithuania to change its wrong policies and attitudes, otherwise it is impossible to make substantial progress. This kind of role positioning of small countries in the game of great powers is destined to be difficult and helpless.
This can't help but remind people of a comment from a netizen: "Lithuania, are you having trouble with yourself?".”。This assessment of Lithuania may be a bit harsh, but it also speaks for itself. They may have done it for their own selfish gain, but they have pushed themselves deeper into a predicament. This kind of practice of going against the trend will eventually lift a stone and shoot itself in the foot.
What Lithuania is doing is only a small stir-up, and for China and Russia, it is just hope. However, the isolation and risk they suffer may simply be due to their wrong policies and positions. In international politics, a small mistake can lead to an even bigger storm. Perhaps, Lithuania still needs to think carefully about whether it is time to follow the general trend or insist on going its own way and defy the law.
Looking at Lithuania's behavior from the perspective of the Chinese is simply laughable. This kind of small move, trying to make fun of China and Russia, is really a bit self-sufficient. To be honest, we in China don't care what a small country like Lithuania thinks and plays with political means.
China has always adhered to its principles and taken a neutral stance on international affairs, which Lithuania does not seem to understand. They play some tricks in the political arena and think that they can influence the overall international situation, which is simply boasting. China has more important things to do, so how can it afford to deal with their self-congratulatory behavior?
As for the so-called "threats" from Lithuania, to be honest, China did not take them seriously at all. They boast that they can influence Sino-Russian relations, and it is a bit arrogant to want to play in this big chessboard. We in China can ignore it, but they boast about themselves in this small corner, which is a bit funny.
In terms of neutral relations, we have always hoped to develop mutually beneficial and win-win relationships. But Lithuania has made such a small move, making it as if they are bullish, which is too underestimated. What do they want to gain by provocation?It's a bit whimsical.
China also has no special needs for Lithuania's ** relations, and it is completely possible to find cooperation with other countries. They are now tossing around, and it doesn't matter to China at all. We can turn a blind eye to Lithuanian goods, and there is no need to risk their goods. If they find their own pumps, don't blame us China for being indifferent to them.
Such provocative acts by small countries will only cause trouble for themselves. Lithuania seems to have forgotten a truth, a small country must also understand the rules, not pretentious, and play political tricks. Their self-righteous approach will only invite more trouble and isolation for themselves.
China has always respected the sovereignty and independence of every country, but it will not tolerate others treating us as toys. Lithuania's self-indulgence can only reap the consequences, but it is only asking for trouble for itself. China will continue to uphold the principles of equality and mutual benefit, but it will not comment on such unrealistic small actions.
