Kluczowe akapity (poza pierwszym):

Po spotkaniu przywódców trzech państw bałtyckich: Dalii Grybauskaite, Raimondsa Vejonisa i Toomasa Ilvesa, poświęconym omówieniu aktualnych tematów dotyczących Europy i regionu, prezydent Litwy oznajmiła, że jej kraj nie będzie uczestniczył w koalicji antyterrorystycznej, w której będzie Rosja.
- Litwa nie będzie uczestniczyć w koalicji z Rosją, która dotychczas okupuje terytoria innych państw, która prowadzi działania wojenne w dwóch państwach: w Ukrainie i Gruzji - powiedziała prezydent Grybauskaite. [PAP]
 
On November 19, Russia said it was willing to participate in such a coalition.
"Lithuania will not take part in any new coalition in which Russia will participate or would like to participate," Lithuanian President Dalia Grybauskaite said. "To this day, Russia is occupying the territory of one country and committing acts of war in two countries: Ukraine and Georgia."
Latvian President Raimond Vejonis said the fight against IS "should not take our attention from Ukraine." 
Tensions between Russia and the West have run high since Russia annexed the Ukrainian region of Crimea in March 2014 and began aiding and supplying separatist rebels in eastern Ukraine.
Estonian President Toomas Hendrik Ilves said he has doubts about "any coalition that would involve an aggressor like our neighbor."

On Thursday, Russia said it would be ready to work with such a coalition -- on the condition that its members respect Syria's sovereignty -- a prospect that does not please the presidents of Baltic EU members Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.
"Lithuania will not take part in any new coalition in which Russia will participate or would like to participate. To this day Russia is occupying the territory of one country and committing acts of war in two countries, Ukraine and Georgia," President Dalia Grybauskaite said in the western resort town of Palanga after meeting with her Baltic counterparts.
Tensions between the small NATO members and neighbouring Russia have surged since Moscow's annexation of Crimea from Ukraine last year and the ongoing conflict in eastern Ukraine between pro-Russia rebels and the government.
Under Moscow's thumb until 1991, the three Baltic states have been spooked by Russia's activity in the region and concerned about its territorial ambitions.
"We have to think seriously about any coalition that would involve an aggressor like our neighbour," Estonian President Toomas Hendrik Ilves told reporters.
Latvian President Raimonds Vejonis the situation in the EU and around it southern borders "should not take our attention from Ukraine.
"It is our common task to keep the issue of Ukraine high on EU agenda until the full resolution of the Minsk agreement," referring to the ceasefire agreement signed in February.
The Latvian foreign ministry added in a statement that "the fight against terrorists and resolving the conflict in Syria should not be at the expense of Ukraine".
Though they recognise that many of the refugees arriving in Europe are fleeing conflicts, the Baltic presidents also stand united against welcoming any more migrants before the EU takes action to better secure its external borders.
"To talk about something more is too early before what was agreed is fulfilled," said Grybauskaite referring to the border plans. [AFP]
