2017～2018年，由“农民与绿色联盟党”与社会民主党共同组建的联合政府内部矛盾激化，导致联合政府在议会中失去了优势，施政难度加大。经济方面，2017～2018年，立陶宛维持了良好的经济发展势头，正式成为经合组织成员国。然而立陶宛的经济发展受制于较严重的高素质劳动力短缺问题。在外交事务上，2017～2018年立陶宛在双边关系层面继续向欧盟与美国靠拢，视俄罗斯为安全威胁，加强了军队建设。针对少数族裔的教育、就业问题，本届政府加大了扶持力度，总体上维持了立陶宛不同族裔之间的稳定关系。2017～2018年，立陶宛政府继续保持较为友好的对华关系，双方官员互动频繁。但立陶宛在政治价值观层面倒向西方阵营，中立关系仍存在潜在矛盾。
In 2017-2018，tensions between the Farmers and Greens Union and the Lithuanian Social Democratic Party in the coalition government worsened，costing the coalition’s majority status in the parliament and difficulties in administration. In economic terms，Lithuania keeps growing steadily between 2017-2018. Nonetheless，the shortage and low quality of labor is hindering future growth. In ethnic relations，the Lithuanian government provides more favorable policies for minority groups in education and employment. But potential ethnic conflicts still linger as minorities are required to write their official names in Lithuanian. In international relations，Lithuania regards the U.S. as its geopolitical ally and considers Russia as its biggest external threat. Lithuania remains friendly to China，but potential tensions exist due to differences in political values.
