No name change for Taiwan’s Lithuania office: MOFABy Fion Khan / Staff writer, with CNAThe name of the Taiwanese Representative Office in Lithuania was based on a consensus reached by both sides and there is no discussion about changing it, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) said today. A plaque hangs on a door at the Taiwanese Representative Office in Lithuania in Vilnius in an undated photograph. Both sides look forward to deepening bilateral relations and substantive cooperation, he said, adding that Taiwan would continue to maintain close communication with Lithuania. China downgraded relations with Lithuania after Taiwan opened the office. In contrast to Lithuania, countries such as the UK, the US and Australia host offices that are usually known as “Taipei” representative offices, which avoids the implication of statehood and sovereignty.
