> They’re too corrupt

Compared to what? China? russia?

> Lithuanian railway and Belarus deal should be known better to you.

It's has been blown out of proportion without understanding the full picture, not corruption. "The US Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) has officially confirmed that Washington's sanctions against Belaruskali, one of the world's largest potash fertiliser producers and exporters, are not binding on Lithuania's state-owned railways.[1]"

Lithuanian railway cannot just terminate their contract otherwise they will face legal consequences in Court of Arbitration. They are looking for a legal way to kill the contract, but it takes time and planing.

Pick some other from the list: Vilnius Subway project, National airline, National stadium.

There are no state projects that are designed for wellbeing of the citizens. They are all made for state money laundering. You know why MO Museum is so different from everything in that country? It’s made by rich guy for people without selfish interests.
