In an interview with the media, Peskov described Lithuania's actions as "real unprecedented" and "violated everything." He said that Moscow's understanding of this decision of Lithuania is related to the EU's measures to impose sanctions on transit goods, but Russia believes that the practice of expanding punishment measures is illegal.

It is reported that Peskov pointed out that "this situation is very serious, and in -depth analysis is needed before formulating any measures and decisions." He said that Russia's "in -depth analysis" will be carried out in the next few days. When asked if Lithuania's behavior was "blockade" for this Russian flying land, Peskov replied: "Of course this is part of the blockade."

On the same day, the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement asking Lithuania to "immediately" cancel the transit banning of most of the goods that are transported to the Kalinrad area.

The statement said that Russia believes that cubic measures violate international legal obligations, especially the joint statement signed by Russia and the European Union on the transit issues between Kalinenrad and other territories of the Federation of Russia. If cargo transportation is not restored in the near future, the Russian side reserves the right to take action to safeguard national interests.

RT reported that last Saturday, Lithuania announced that it would no longer be allowed to be allowed to be sanctioned by the European Union to transfer to the Kalinrad area through its territory. The types of goods currently restricted include coal, metal, building materials and advanced technology products. Anton Alikhanov, Governor of Galinen, said the ban means up to 50%of goods will be affected.

LTG Cargo, a freight company at Lithuania Railway Corporation (LTG), confirmed that according to the European Commission, even if the sanctioned goods were transported from one place in Russia to another place, as long as the territory of the EU member states passed through, the transit was transit. It should still be banned.

RT reports that Andrey Klishas, ​​chairman of the Constitutional Legislative Committee of the Russian Federal Committee, posted a post on the social platform Telegram on Monday that "Lithuania's attempts on the actual blockade of the Kalinen Grandians invaded the Russian pair The sovereignty in the region may become a reason for Russia to take very tough and absolute legal action.
