2010-07-06 Address by H.E. Dalia Grybauskaitė, President of the Republic of Lithuania, in Daukanto Square on the Occasion of State Day

Today we celebrate a very special date in the history of our nation - July 6 - which marks the beginning of Lithuanian statehood. More than seven hundred years ago, Lithuania united under a crown. It was a resolute step made by the Baltic tribes led by Mindaugas on the international arena of those times. It made Lithuania stronger, protected her from enemies who from then on had to speak with us in the language of diplomacy, not the threat of war.
