This was reported by LRT.
"The world order established after World War II, which set the principle of inviolable borders, is now facing a precedent of being broken. After that, territorial claims could start appearing all over Europe," the parliament leader told reporters on Saturday.
"There’s probably no country that hasn’t had some kind of territorial conflict with its neighbor in the past," he added.
Skvernelis stressed that the worst thing would be if such a precedent "was backed by the argument of force."
"I captured it, and the international community recognizes it. This really cannot happen — it’s a very dangerous moment that could spark many regional conflicts," the parliamentary leader said.
- President Volodymyr Zelenskyy commented on U.S. leader Donald Trump's statements regarding the status of Crimea, stressing that Kyiv will not legally recognize any temporarily occupied territories as part of Russia.
