On 6 July at the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Moscow, heads of Lithuanian, Polish and Russian delegations signed final documents of the demarcation of the state border intersection and completed the demarcation procedure of the state border intersection point at Vištytis.

On 27 October 2005, the joint Lithuanian, Polish and Russian commission signed an agreement on the location of the state border intersection. In compliance with this agreement, a pink granite monolith of cylindrical form that is 1.90 meters high and measures 0.5 m in diameter was erected at the state border intersection point in June 2010.
This border intersection sign is the first border sign that was erected at the intersection point of the Lithuanian-Russian state border.
This is the second marked border intersection, the first marked one was the intersection point of the Lithuanian-Belarusian-Latvian state border at Liudvinavas.
This year, officials also plan to mark the intersection point of the Lithuanian-Polish-Belarusian state border at Mara.
