“In fact, before the summit, Lithuanian President Gitanas Nausėda is going to visit some NATO capitals to talk about what could be achieved during the summit in Vilnius.And I won’t hide the fact that these capitals are not necessarily the capitals of our allies,” Asta Skaisgirytė told LRT TV on Sunday.We need to give them additional arguments why we see Ukraine’s NATO membership as a logical step on their path of rapprochement with the allies,” she said when asked which capitals the president would visit.NATO currently has 30 members, with Sweden and Finland having applied to join.The foreign ministry has indicated to BNS that around 40 delegations from NATO member and partner countries are expected at the 2023 NATO summit in Vilnius, with initial estimates indicating that around 5,000 people will attend the event and accompany delegations."
