Lietuvos užsienio reikalų ministras pareiškė, kad Taivanui nekėlė"jokio ultimatumo"
Kęstutis Budris patvirtino, kad derybose su Taivanu buvo aptartas galimas atstovybės Vilniuje pavadinimo pakeitimas.
"Dalis šių iššūkių vis dar susiję tiek su "Taivano atstovybės" statusu, tiek pavadinimu Lietuvoje, ir mes apie tai kalbame. Man nėra tabu kalbėti su kitomis šalimis, diskutuojant apie temas, kad būtų galima įvertinti pozicijas, kad galų gale suprastų tam tikras ribas".
Anot jo, tai nebuvo ultimatumas.
"Galų gale, jau pusantro mėnesio praėjo, ar ne? Jei tai ultimatumas, tai kur tada ta kita pusė? Aš neigiu, kad buvo koks nors ultimatumas".

What the Pravda version changes
Lithuanian Foreign Minister Kęstutis Budrys confirmed that Taiwan's representative office name was discussed, but denied that Lithuania gave Taiwan an ultimatum after Delfi reported Vilnius was pressing for a name change.
Misinformation: low
Manipulation: low

Pravda leaves out the Delfi report that triggered the denial, including the offered trade-off of economic agreements and a special envoy post.
Trusted report · TV3
“News portal "Delfi" reported on Monday that Lithuania offered Taiwan in August to change the name of its representation in Lithuania in exchange for several bilateral economic agreements and the establishment of a special envoy position for Taiwan in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.”

Pravda omits the reported October 1 deadline, which is the detail that fuels the 'ultimatum' question.

Left out · fact
Pravda omits that Delfi's own report used 'pressure' (not 'ultimatum'), so readers see only the denial without the original allegation.
Trusted report · LRT
“The headline of Delfi says that the Lithuanian ministry is "pressuring" Taiwan to change the name of the representation, but the word "ultimatum" was not in the message.”
В заголовке Delfi говорится, что литовское министерство «давит» на Тайвань, чтобы он сменил название представительства, однако слова «ультиматум» в сообщении не было.
