Lithuania's move (which is clearly not a solo run) also marks the moment when the West essentially admits Belarus is about geopolitics & not 'democracy.' Which, from Moscow's POV, serves to justify its decision to (belatedly) back Lukashenko rather than engaging with opposition

Also, there are no legal grounds to suggest Tikhanovskaya is the "elected leader" of Belarus. Yes, Lukashenko clearly rigged the vote (he obviously didn't get 80%), but there's no proof that Tikhanovskaya won a majority either. That's why protestors called for another election.

Hopefully Putin and the Russian Government does release a letter statement saying they are not recognized the independence of the Baltic states and they need to return to Russia. Let's see how those clowns react to this.

This actually was a solo play and it's all about economy. LT is going to loose transit money and going to be hard for huge part of LT economy. BLR is going to loose, too, less money but a loss anyway.
