The Apostolic Nuncio H. Em. Pedro Lopez Quintana paid a Visit to Panevėžys
" We aim at close cooperation with state institutions as we share common goals. Unlike political diplomats we belong to the ones of the Holy See. We do not sell anything and in cooperating we try to achieve welfare for your people. I do not feel a foreigner in Lithuania and try to find possibilities to stay together with you for the sake of better understanding and assistance",- said H. Em. Pedro Lopez Quintana.
The guest has been shortly presented with the economical and social situation. Eemigrational and investment environment has been discussed, the Way of St. James has been remembered and the opinions about state and European Union policy has been shared.

"I am very pleased to see you in Panevėžys. I do hope that in implementing your mission in Latvia and Estonia, on the way you will visit Panevėžys more often",- invited the guest the Mayor R. Račkauskas.
