US business community urges Lithuania to appoint ambassador to Washington 2021-02-01 BNS/TBT Staff VILNIUS – The US business community is calling on Lithuania to appoint its ambassador to the United States as soon as possible. "It's very bad not to have an ambassador there for half a year. We should nurture that friendship through diplomacy," Tadas Vizgirda, chairman of the Board of Directors at the American Chamber of Commerce in Lithuania (AmCham Lithuania), told BNS on Monday. "Six months without an ambassador, that doesn't look serious," he added. In a letter last week, AmCham Lithuania urged President Gitanas Nauseda to appoint the country's ambassador to Washington as soon as possible.
