This dream. however. turned into a nightmare 22 years later as Lithuania was swallowed up by the octopus of international communism. Up to this very day the subjugation of Lithuania continues. Through mass deportations of Lithuanian patriots and their replacement by Russian immigrants the Soviet Union has attempted to stamp out forever any trace of a free and independent Lithuania. The citizens of this courageous nation have never faltered in their burning desire for freedom and independence and will continue their fight to become once again a free and sovereign state. To this day the United States has refused to recognize the absorption of Lithuania by the Soviet Union.
