Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu landed in Lithuania today for a Baltic summit through which he said he hoped to deepen ties with eastern European nations to counter the EU's "not always friendly" relations with his country.
Netanyahu, who has Lithuanian roots, was greeted by the Baltic country's foreign minister at Vilnius airport.
"I want to achieve a balance in the European Union's not always friendly relations with Israel in order to maintain fairer relations," Netanyahu said before boarding the plane for the first-ever visit by an Israeli premier to Lithuania.
"I am doing it through contacts with blocs of European Union countries, eastern European countries, and now with Baltic countries and other countries, of course."
