A new postage stamp is being issued – dedicated to a special initiative

A new postage stamp has been issued to support the Ministry of Foreign Affairs initiative "Grįžtu LT," aimed at helping Lithuanians abroad plan their return to Lithuania.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Lithuania has issued a new postage stamp dedicated to the initiative "Grįžtu LT," which operates as an information center for Lithuanians living abroad and facilitates their return to the country. Minister Kęstutis Budrys describes the stamp as a symbolic bridge connecting Lithuania with its citizens globally. He highlights the importance of this initiative, noting that it has led to a positive trend where more citizens are returning to Lithuania than leaving it over the past six years.

The postage stamp is not only a functional item but also carries a message inviting Lithuanians living overseas to return, encapsulated in the phrase "Grįžtu LT – where the heart is." By embodying this sentiment, the stamp aims to resonate with the diaspora, encouraging a reconnection with their homeland. Kęstutis Budrys emphasizes that every returning citizen brings back valuable experiences, knowledge, and new ideas that can further strengthen Lithuania.

Additionally, the new stamp will be introduced to the public during the Vilnius Book Fair, adding a cultural aspect to its launch. This event will serve as a platform for promoting the initiative and highlighting the role of the diaspora in Lithuania's growth and development. The issuance of this stamp signifies a broader effort to engage with and support Lithuanians living abroad, fostering a sense of belonging and community, regardless of location.
