Estonian PM cancels visit to Lithuania due to cabinet crisis

According to initial plans, Roivas was to attend the LNG floating terminal arrival ceremony in Klaipėda, Lithuania. Before the ceremony, a joint working lunch of the prime ministers and US representatives was to take place.

In the afternoon, Prime Minister Taavi Roivas was supposed to depart for Stockholm to attend the Nordic-Baltic Eight (NB8) Summit taking place on the same day. The meeting of the heads of government from Sweden, Finland, Norway, Iceland, Denmark, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania will cover topics such as the economic situation in Europe, transatlantic relations, and developments related to Ukraine.
