Lithuania's President Gitanas Nausėda and Prime Minister Saulius Skvernelis congratulated Joe Biden on winning the the presidency of the United States on Saturday evening, shortly after US media projected the Democrat has defeated Republican incumbent Donald Trump in the election.

“Congrats @JoeBiden on winning the #US Presidential elections! Look forward to continuing strategic bilateral cooperation! Lithuania cherishes strong transatlantic bond & #US leadership in @NATO, the guarantor of the security of the Baltics,” Nausėda tweeted.

“With most recent news coming in, I wish to congratulate President-elect @JoeBiden and his team. United States is a friend of #Lithuania, key Ally and partner, and I hope that together we will make this partnership even stronger,” Skvernelis said on Twitter.
