ENThe uninvestigated pages of the blockade of Lithuania’s independency. Under discussion are two memoranda from the year 1990 written by Linas Kojelis, an activist of Lithuanian exile community in the USA, who sent them to a Lithuanian diplomat Stasys Lozoraitis as well as to some American politicians. It is likely that the US administration used them to justify its policy of non-recognition of the re-established independency Lithuania’s. The letters stun by reactionary radicalism. They not only recommend to revoke the declaration and accompanying laws, but also to dispense with democratic elections, returning all power into the hands of the same Moscow-subordinated communist party. The author wonders: are there some extra-terrestrial powers that make the venerated Lithuanian elite act against national freedom?. [From the publication]
