Russian vandals damaged the car of an employee of the Lithuanian Embassy in Moscow. Even the fact that the car was in a guarded parking lot did not prevent this.
Ugnius Labutis, an employee of the Lithuanian embassy, became a victim of Russian vandals. He posted photos of the painted car on Facebook.
The published footage shows the car littered with the letters Z, used by Russia to designate its military equipment, which came to destroy and kill all life in Ukraine. The Z symbol has become the new swastika, an analogue of the Nazi symbols used by Adolf Hitler in World War II. Ugnius Labutis.

Why the Russians are taking revenge on Lithuania
- Since June 18, Lithuania has suspended the transit of sanctioned cargo between the Kaliningrad region and the main territory of Russia. That is why the aggressor country has seriously “burned out”. The Russian Foreign Ministry called the actions of Lithuania a violation of international legal obligations.
- In addition, they began to loudly say that their hands were “untied”. And very soon, exercises began in the Kaliningrad region with Grads and Hurricanes. And the self-proclaimed President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko generally spoke that in this way Lithuania actually declared war.
- Lithuania's response to the threats was not long in coming. The Lithuanian Foreign Ministry stressed that they only comply with the sanctions imposed by the EU. Lithuanian President Gitanas Nauseda said that there will be no concessions.
- The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry came to the defense of Lithuanian friends. Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba said that Russia itself is to blame for the consequences of the invasion of Ukraine.
The other day, against the backdrop of numerous threats to Lithuania from Russia, neighboring Latvia also decided to strengthen the defense of the country. A Spanish-supplied NASAMS surface-to-air missile battery was deployed there.
Latvian Defense Minister Artis Pabriks told Delfi that together with NATO allies, the country is starting to form a brigade of international forces. Together with the air defense system, 85 soldiers arrived in Latvia, joining the approximately 500 soldiers of the Spanish Armed Forces who are already in the Baltic countries.
