| Abstract: | The chapter provides an overview of the relations between the People’s Republic of China and Lithuania since early 1990s, when bilateral diplomatic relations were formally established. It presents the evolution of the perception of China in Lithuania from that of an economic opportunity toward security concern, not only due to China’s activities in Lithuania but more importantly due to the implications of China’s rise to the international order more broadly. The chapter also reveals the role that Taiwan issue has played in the change of this perception and in the shift in Lithuania’s China policy recently. |
