Lithuanian president, in Davos, defends Poland in row with EU

“No matter how difficult the situation is, we cannot blame and shame each other. We need to find together consensual solutions, because Europe is about understanding and agreement, not about enforcing, beating and using the instruments, which had never been used before,” Grybauskaitė said during a discussion in Davos, where she is attending the World Economic Forum.

“Recently, we saw examples of institutions trying to imply, enforce by force some decisions, which (…) gives a very bad image to the population in some countries,” she added.
