Lithuania's presidential office anticipates no major shifts in the energy sector, even with a new minister at the helm. Ramūnas Dilba, the President's chief advisor, stated that the energy field is inherently long-term, and the foundational work is already established and necessary for the country.

Dilba highlighted that energy security is crucial for national security. The primary objectives for the incoming minister include achieving full domestic electricity generation capacity by 2028. Additionally, the focus will be on strengthening energy partnerships with the United States, a strategic ally, and continuing the implementation of vital strategic projects.

Among these key projects is the construction of the 'Harmony Link' electricity connection. This initiative is part of a broader strategy to ensure Lithuania's energy independence and resilience. The presidential office views these ongoing efforts as essential for the nation's future stability and development in the energy domain.
