Led by Parliamentary Speaker Arturas Paulauskas, the delegation will
leave for a week-long visit to three countries in the South Caucasus
region — Azerbaijan, Georgia and Armenia — on June 4.
“The purpose of the visit is to introduce three South Caucasus
countries into the development, the achievements of our country, to
assist them in developing democracy and the economy, and to convey the
experience we have accumulated in the process of integrations into
the European Union and NATO. This is especially important because
Georgia and Azerbaijan have already declared quite explicitly their
willingness to access the EU and NATO,” Paulauskas told journalists.
During the visit, the delegation will meet with top officials and
politicians, students, and members of non-governmental organizations.
