Ambassador Ginte Damusyte-Damusis was the keynote speaker at the 98th Anniversary of the Lithuanian Declaration of Independence Program in Cleveland. She spoke of the improvement since the Soviet Union era specifically in the energy sector.

Lithuania had been dependent on Russian oil and gas but is moving toward energy independence.  This is especially important now as Russia uses energy for political influence.
