ENThe article examines the attitude of the French Communist Party towards Lithuania in 1944–1948, when the party was at the height of its popularity. The analysis of their press also reveals Soviet propaganda against Lithuania in France during this period. Mostly through a series of party newspaper L’Humanité articles and French diplomatic archives, it seeks to uncover the ways in which the French Communists supported the Soviet annexation of Lithuania in the information war in France and the impact this had on French politics.
