„When the President disregards constitutional imperatives and becomes a fighter in the political arena when he should be a mediator. He is not a boss or a big brother to be obeyed. I find this rhetoric unacceptable,“ D. Žalimas said on Tuesday at the continuation of the East European Studies Centre's (RESC) series of debates with presidential candidates.
„One of the most important issues for Minister G. Landsbergis after the decisions of the VTEK tomorrow would be to resolve the recall of the Ambassador to London, E. Bajarūnas. The Minister also hopes that tomorrow he and the President will take comprehensive decisions on other stalled appointments in the Lithuanian diplomatic corps“, Deputy Minister Jonas Survila said in a commentary to Elta on the eve of the meeting.
