Lithuanian President Urged EU to Extend anti-Russian Sanctions

European Union must extend anti-Russian sanctions, Lithuanian President Dalia Grybauskaite announced at a joint press conference with Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko, who arrived in Lithuania for an official visit, Sputnik News reports.

"The fragile truce in Ukraine is not peace. A ceasefire agreement is constantly violated, heavy military equipment still has not been withdrawn, and control over the Ukrainian border has not been restored," Grybauskaite said.

The EU, the US and their allies imposed several anti-Russian sanctions in 2014, accusing Moscow of meddling in the Ukrainian conflict between Kiev forces and independence supporters in the southeast. The claims have been denied by the Kremlin.
