You've been reading too much propaganda. Living in Lithuania is become better each year. Lithuania's GDP is like Belarus, while the population is 3x smaller. Lithuania has surpassed russia in GDP per Capita long time ago. Lithuania is #11 in doing business [1]. Lithuania is Largest Fintech hub in the EU in terms of licensed companies[2]. Lithuania is one of global leaders when it comes to laser technology. And currently, there are talks between Taiwan and Lithuania about semi-conductor factory. And that is being achieved in only 30 years or so.
Regarding being faceless. Lithuania has showed that it has a strong spine again and again against authoritarian regimes. By hosting Belarusian pro democracy leaders [3], by support Ukraine in every possible way in their path to democracy, and yes, supporting Taiwan, which resulted in spat between China and Lithuania. While we old western countries talk, Lithuania walks the talk.
Lithuania has very much a face. And that's the face of being pro democracy. Yes they are small and they rely on their partners support, but they have values.
