The Lithuanian premier, who is spending his vacation making a bicycle tour in Belarus together with Lithuanian politicians, officials, their family members and friends, made a stopover in the medieval town for the informal meeting with Mr. Sidorski.

Lithuania, which will build a liquefied natural gas terminal to ease dependence on Russian gas, may also help Belarus seek alternative natural gas routes, Agence France Presse said with reference to Mr. Kubilius.  "Belarus is showing its interest.
