We are proud to see Lithuanian business sharing our experiences in logistics and transport sectors 🇱🇹✨🚍

At the TransLogistica Caspian Forum, Julius Skačkauskas, Manager at the Transport Innovation Association, advocated for the creation of a single digital permit and a single-window system for document processing across the corridor. He also highlighted the potential contribution of the 🇪🇺 Global Gateway initiative to the further development of transport connectivity between Europe and Central Asia.

During Forum discussions Jurgis Adomavičius, Chairman of the Board of the Transport Innovation Association and Founder & CEO of Bunasta, highlighted the importance of digitalization and integrated tracking systems for improving efficiency along the Trans-Caspian International Transport Route. He emphasized that harmonized procedures and digital solutions are essential for reducing costs, improving predictability and strengthening supply chain resilience. In media interviews, Mr. Adomavičius also underlined the growing strategic importance of the Middle Corridor amid geopolitical shifts and stressed the need for diversified transport routes connecting Asia and Europe.

During the visit, the delegation was welcomed at Lietuvos ambasada Azerbaidžane / Embassy of Lithuania in Azerbaijan by Ambassador Kęstutis Vaškelevičius, where discussions focused on strengthening economic ties and exploring new opportunities for cooperation.

While Baku Energy Week 2026 is bringing together high level delegations and experts from many countries to discuss the future of energy, logistics, and connectivity, the prestigious Caspian Energy magazine has just published an interview with Prime Minister of Lithuania, Inga Ruginienė.

The interview highlights growing partnership between our two countries and the significant potential to expand cooperation in energy, digitalization, transport, logistics, and other strategic sectors.

As Prime Minister Ruginienė puts it, “Azerbaijan plays an important role in connecting Europe with Central Asia, while Lithuania offers access to the Baltic region and the wider European Union market. We see clear potential in linking our regions more closely through logistics corridors, including stronger integration between the Caspian region and the Baltic Sea.” In a world of shifting supply chains and geopolitical uncertainty, this creates a natural foundation for pragmatic and forward-looking cooperation.

Perhaps most importantly, Prime Minister sends a strong message about the future of Lithuania–Azerbaijan relations: “Lithuania sees Azerbaijan as a reliable and important partner, and we are ready to build a relationship that is practical, respectful, and oriented toward long-term results.”

This week, Baku is hosting Baku Energy Week 2026, one of the region’s leading platforms for energy dialogue, alongside the TransLogistica Caspian, Caspian Oil & Gas, and Caspian Power exhibitions and forums.

Lithuania is proud to be part of these important conversations, exchanging experiences on the future of energy and logistics, and sharing Lithuania’s success story.

Lithuania is now recognised for one of the fastest renewable electricity transformations in the EU.

This is more than a green transition. It is a story of resilience, security, and strategic vision.

Read more in the "Euronews" article below.

☀️ A new Euronews article highlights Lithuania’s rapid shift from energy dependence to energy resilience - powered by solar, wind and a clear national ambition.

⚡ In just five years, renewable electricity grew from 15% to 50% of Lithuania’s domestic consumption. Solar capacity increased from 225 MW to 3,284 MW, while wind power grew from 623 MW to 2,535 MW. In April, solar and wind covered 84% of Lithuania’s electricity demand.

🇱🇹 By producing more clean energy at home, Lithuania is reducing dependence on imported fossil fuels, strengthening resilience and showing how a crisis can become an opportunity.

As Euronews notes, Lithuania is now being recognised for one of the fastest renewable electricity transformations in the EU - with the ambition to cover domestic electricity consumption with 100% renewable power by 2028 and move towards becoming a net exporter of clean electricity.

This is more than a green transition. It is a security story.

Lithuania condemned the recent Russia’s terror attacks against Ukrainian civilians and civilian infrastructure in Kyiv.

Lithuanian MFA delivered a protest note to Russian Embassy. Užsienio reikalų ministerija emphasized that nuclear capable missiles and other projectiles targeting Ukrainian civilians must not be treated as business as usual.

Lithuania’s President Gitanas Nausėda said that “Russia’s latest massive strike on Kyiv once again shows that terror against civilians remains a core instrument of the Kremlin’s war. Hundreds of drones and missiles launched overnight against residential areas, schools and civilian infrastructure only further expose Russia’s brutality and disregard for human life.”

Russia will be held accountable. And we will continue supporting Ukraine for as long as it takes- said President Nausėda.

🇱🇹❤️🇺🇦
