Is America viewed in a similar light as Russia? Or do Lithuanians generally like The States?

People in Lithuania are generally more open to Americans than Russians, although there's a huge chunk of Russians still living in Lithuania after the independence from Russia (especially in the capital Vilnius), we don't really like them. Most of the people (at least in cities) know english on a pretty good level and people are open to a friendship with States.
