Fortunately, Lithuanians – as well as Estonians and Latvians – understood this game. It failed also in Crimea when Russia sought to deploy its old strategy of divide and rule there in 1991.
幸运的是，立陶宛，和爱沙尼亚及拉脱维亚一样，看清了这场游戏的规则。1991年俄欲在克里米亚地区部署旧分裂战略并控制该地区，结果以失败告终。但这次失败并没有使克里米亚放弃其基本策略。相反，俄罗斯继续着它的帝国主义野心，而他的坚持得到了回报。
