Summary/Abstract: The second round of parliamentary elections in Lithuania ended on 25 October. The country’s right wing won in single-member constituencies, which means that the conservative Homeland Union (TS-LKD) will return to power after eight years. Although the foreign policy priorities of this centre-right government will not change the direction substantially, the nuances will be important, determining, among others, the future of relations with Poland.
