In certain cases, Ostroz’kyj led both the Polish and Lithuanian militaries. In modern times, the Lithuanian-Polish-Ukrainian Brigade was named after him. His legacy is one of many that we share between Ukrainians and Lithuanians. Our common narratives and cultural ties help us understand each other well today. This understanding manifests itself in practical and mutually beneficial cooperation.
Having successfully integrated into the EU and NATO, Lithuania has been actively assisting Ukraine on its path towards Euro Atlantic integration. One key contribution has been Lithuania’s participation in the EU Twinning projects aimed at promoting cooperation between public institutions in the EU and Eastern Partnership countries. These projects may not necessarily look revolutionary, yet they yield tangible results.
