"We've already seen that they are aligning themselves, or they want Russia to align to their version of the global order," Landsbergis told Bloomberg TV's Maria Tadeo after a meeting of his NATO counterparts in Brussels. "And definitely in that world order, Ukraine is not able to maintain its full sovereignty."
China sees "Russia already as some sort of a satellite. And they currently do not have, but they're planning to have, Russia exactly where they want it," Landsbergis said. He rejected China's proposals for an end to Russia's war in Ukraine. "It's not a peace plan. Definitely," he said. "You cannot have full sovereignty of a country and loss of territory." [...] Asked about European leaders flying into Beijing with business executives, Landsbergis replied: "Our consumers, people in Europe[,] should not have to pay the price for decisions made during business trips to Beijing." Macron's group includes a delegation of executives from large and small French companies. [...] Landsbergis said Lithuania had chosen to decouple from China, but that he understood not all countries could do the same. He added: "De-risking cannot be business as usual."
