On July 8, Russia warned Lithuania and the European Union that it could adopt “harsh measures” against them if the transit of some goods to and from the Russian exclave of Kaliningrad did not resume. “If the situation does not stabilize in the coming days, then Russia will take harsh measures against Lithuania and the European Union,” Maria Zakharova, spokesperson of the Russian foreign ministry, said in a statement. “The issue has taken too long to resolve.”
