On September 4, GLL in cooperation with law firm TRINITI, organized LIETUVA³ discussion with Agnia Grigas, Vygaudas Ušackas, and Marius Laurinavičius on geopolitics of the world. They acknowledged that Donald Trump’s politics in US is a distorted representation of long-term feelings of Americans, noted that current alliances do not represent power distribution accordingly, thus raising possible rallies between China and Russia. As for Lithuana, it would help thinking locally – ensuring proper education, country’s representation, and society’s unification; while acting globally – making the best use of migration trends, and constantly moving forward.
