The message said, in part:

“Russian-Lithuanian relations are based on the principles of neighbourly equality and respect of mutual interests. They have risen to a new level of understanding and lucrative partnership in recent years. You have made a tremendous personal contribution to this cause.”

Mr Putin said he was sure joint efforts would guarantee further progress of Russian-Lithuanian political, trade, economic, social and cultural contacts to the benefit of both nations.
