“We could wait for what I have called the “Pearl Harbor effect”, a moment in history when the problems of tomorrow finally become the problems of today, but at an enormously inflated price. Or we could treat this as today’s problem and start solving it today,’” Landsbergis wrote in a tweet.

Lithuanian Minister of Foreign Affairs Gabrielius Landsbergis expressed deep concerns about the West’s handling of the Russian aggression towards Ukraine, warning against a repetition of historical mistakes. Landsbergis, in a Twitter thread, called for immediate action and emphasized the need to avoid waiting for a “Pearl Harbor effect.”
Landsbergis began by sharing his apprehensions about the West teetering on the edge of repeating historical errors in supporting Ukraine against Russian aggression. He urged swift and decisive measures, cautioning against the dangers of procrastination.

The Lithuanian Foreign Minister argued that for nearly 25 years, the West has been attempting “to contain Russian imperialism through dialogue and diplomacy,” but Putin’s disregard for borders and the devastation of cities persist. Landsbergis stressed the urgent need to confront the issue head-on.
