A Joint Communiqué on the establishment of diplomatic relations between Lithuania and the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago was signed the same day by Lithuanian Minister of Foreign Affairs Audronius Ažubalis and Trinidad and Tobago’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Winston Dookeran.  

 This step will stimulate bilateral cooperation in international organizations – the United Nations organization and its specialized agencies. Moreover, cooperation with the African, Caribbean and Pacific countries is significant in the context of the European Union’s foreign policy.
