"On our side, there is really a lot of interest to look for possibilities to develop economic relations, cultural relations with China," Lithuanian Prime Minister Andrius Kubilius said in an interview with China Daily in Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania. Kubilius added that he hopes that Chinese people will discover more opportunities for potential development in Lithuania, too.

In addition to the relations between the two countries, Kubilius shared his views on the impact of the European debt crisis on Lithuania, as well as expectations on his first visit to China, which will be in September.
