About Lithuania’s public debt

This page shows Lithuania’s public debt as a live estimate. The counter is based on the two most recent official Eurostat reference points and extends the average change forward to today.

Above, you can immediately see the current amount, the change since the previous quarter, and the debt-to-GDP ratio.

02 — What moved

The latest official quarter changed the debt stock.

Lithuania’s gross government debt moved from €33.26bn to €36.26bn between the two latest Eurostat observations.

A rising debt total does not automatically mean the debt burden rose at the same rate. GDP can grow or shrink at the same time — which is why the ratio deserves equal prominence.
