Gitanas Nauseda — President of Lithuania
If Nausėda wins, this will be his second presidential term.
He led Lithuania for the first time in the 2019 elections.
His first visit to Ukraine took place in 2021: then the politician spoke in the Verkhovna Rada with words of support for Ukraine in the confrontation with the Russian Federation in Donbass and on the path to European integration.
With the beginning of the full-scale invasion, Nauseda proved himself to be a staunch supporter of the Ukrainian people, advocating military, financial and political assistance to our country.
