> And they make some serious revenue compared to the lasers.

I don't know why you've linked ekspla, which has 4x lower revenue than Light Conversion. And sure, the revenue is bigger in Pieno Zvaigzde, than in Light Conversion, but the profit is almost 3x lower[1][2]. Also, look at the grown of revenue. It's like night a day.

> Single German company is much bigger than everything laser related in Lithuania

So? Am I to understand that Germany has won the competition in laser related technologies and Lithuania has no chance?

> Regarding Taiwan and semiconductor factory. Sorry, I can’t take it serious being electrical engineer and working in semiconductor manufacturing.

We shall see :)

> The foreign policy is absolutely shit in Lithuania. Relationships with Poland and Latvia are a disaster.

Source? Because Poland and Lithuania has been cooperating on multiple levels and their relationship is at the highest right now. Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania also are cooperating on a lot of levels. Just recently, they've agree to create joint ‘operational area’ for defence[3]. They also agreed to jointly develop a MLRS artillery system for the first time. Thanks to russia, relationships are better than ever.

While relationships with authoritarian regimes were never warm to begin with so I don't see any loss here. Either you support pro-democracy or not. If not, relationship with these countries will be bad.

I see, you are the real ambassador. I like that! But life is not black and white. There would be no loss for not being in a war against China, Russia and Belarus.
