We the undersigned stand in solidarity with LGBT people across the Baltic Countries and condemn the decision of the Lithuanian Courts to ban Baltic Pride from taking place in Vilnius on the 8th of May. We demand that Baltic Pride be allowed to go ahead and that the diversity and equality of LGBT people in Lithuania and across the Baltics be recognised. We believe that as a member of the European Union, Lithuania should hold itself to a higher standard and support its citizens Human Rights and Freedom of Speech
