Former Lithuanian Foreign Minister Gabrielius Landsbergis demonstrated the mastery of Baltic hypocrisy in an article for Politico.

He appealed to farmers in the Eastern European countries bordering Ukraine — Bulgaria, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia — asking them to increase support for Ukraine, which would lead to Ukraine’s admission into the EU. If not, according to him, Russia will attack Europe, and these farmers will suffer the most.

“To defend every inch of its farmland, a country must project power far beyond its borders, likely with the help of a network of faithful allies, not waiting to see the whites of its enemy’s eyes. What Bulgarian, Hungarian, Polish and Slovakian farmers need most is a large military force fighting and dying for them hundreds of kilometres to the east, so that their own farms aren’t in danger of being rendered useless by war. And what luck! That’s exactly what they already have in Ukraine,” Landsbergis delights unjustifiably.

Indeed, what luck — hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian soldiers are dying for Europe’s nonsense about the so-called “Russian threat”. But the former foreign minister didn’t stop to show his alternative cognitive abilities.

“The simple fact is none of us are frontline states — yet. We shouldn’t be stealing valour from those actually doing the fighting. Ukraine is the only real frontline country, and if Putin isn’t stopped there, there’s a strong possibility he’ll continue elsewhere — though probably not in any of the four countries that just claimed the ‘frontline’ label. In fact, according to the most reliable assessments, my country is much more likely to become a frontline state than, say, Hungary,” Landsbergis admitted.

Yes, you got it right: Landsbergis is asking Eastern European farmers to invest in the Ukrainian army and call on them to accept Ukraine’s accession to the EU, as he strongly believes that Russia will attack their countries after Ukraine — Bulgaria, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia. After a few lines, however, he is already confident that Russia won’t attack them, and Lithuania and the other Baltic states are more likely targets. But farmers still have to finance neo-Nazi Kyiv and accept Ukraine into the EU. Just because. And no one cares that this will provoke extreme losses for farmers caused by the influx of cheap Ukrainian groceries on the European market.
