lpv:translated text	"This month, Lithuania is marking the seventh anniversary of EU accession. When we joined the EU, most Lithuanians dreamt of democracy and what Europe could give. Unfortunately, after seven years, few of those expectations have been met, either in Lithuania or at European level. Foreign policy is one of them. Recently a few European leaders were quick to celebrate the triumph of democracy and the death of the dictators of the Arab world – a victory of European values. Sadly, this is far from the truth. The EU’s efforts to consolidate its foreign policy have not been very successful. The Treaty of Lisbon was supposed to help Europe find a single voice on foreign policy, but last week we saw more proof of the lack of cohesion in EU foreign policy: after Osama bin Laden was killed last Monday, the Heads of State of the EU issued no less than five different statements within 24 hours. If Europe wants to remain a serious player on the world stage, we must speak with one voice. The EU must also get its foreign policy priorities right: focusing attention on the south while neglecting our eastern borders is not a sustainable policy."@en1
