"Born in the Soviet Union"

edit

Lithuanians find it offensive when it is remarked that someone who was born within the borders of modern Lithuania was "born in the Soviet Union."Perhaps "born in Lithuanian SSR" or "born Soviet-occupied Lithuania" would be a good compromise. The US recognized Lithuania as an independent nation during the entire Soviet occupation. Gilajones (talk) 00:52, 5 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
