You can still withdraw that request. These requests are generally considered at CEC meetings.
“On Thursday at 4:16 pm, the CEC received a statement from Mr. R. Karbauskis in which he indicated that he was resigning as a member of Seimas,” Laura Matjošaitytė, president of the CEC, confirmed to Delfi.
The president of the CEC explained that the procedure is such that at the next meeting of the Commission, which is scheduled for Tuesday, R. Karbauskis will have to attend the meeting and make his statement again.
“If the commissioners have doubts about whether he has changed his mind, then he will be able to state his position, if his will has not changed or if no one has influenced his decision. The members of the Commission will then decide, after hearing the statement of the member of the committee himself. Seimas, if they terminate their term and, if there is a vacancy for a member of Seimas, they grant those powers to another candidate on the list who is first behind the line. In this case, it would be Ms. Asta Kubilienė “, he said L. Matjošaitytė.
The CEC president explained that he could still change his mind.
“It just came to our attention then. You can change your mind at a Commission meeting on Tuesday. The law generally says that a member of the Seimas must attend a Commission session and make a statement. If they did not attend the Commission meeting the Commission did not make the text known upon arrival or refused, the powers would not end and the problem would not be solved ”, explained L. Matjošaitytė.
Hinted to change your mind
Ramūnas Karbauskis, president of the Lithuanian Peasants’ Green Union, who announced his resignation, stated that there was a circumstance that could change his decision to withdraw from the Seimas, if the ruling majority asked him to stay. The deadline for that is Tuesday.
“A circumstance could change if the majority of the Seimas asked me not to do so. (…) Until Tuesday, I will address the Central Electoral Commission (CEC) on Tuesday with a statement. They have until Tuesday if they want me to stay in the Seimas, “said R. Karbauskis.
R. Karbauskis and the colleague of the faction, who was behind him, laughed at the probability of this happening.
“Everybody here laughs and I can laugh,” said R. Karbauskis.
Take an “all or nothing” approach
The peasant leader takes the “all or nothing” position. The peasants are also demanding that their candidate Aušrinė Norkienė be approved as vice president of the Seimas. They also continue to protest against the proposed reform of the Statute, after which the peasants declared that they would no longer nominate their candidates for the commissions of the commissions and committees.
“After we made our statement, I had to talk to the president of Seimas, the leaders of the other factions of the party, who started to tell us: ‘listen, we are wrong, we are correcting, we are repealing our amendments.’ Our saying was clear: either we go back to the beginning or we don’t talk at all because there is nothing to talk about. Of the hundreds of thousands of people who voted for LVŽS, he is openly ridiculed and we will not accept it, ”said R. Karbauskis.
I will try to fix the situation
Seimas spokesman V. Čmilytė-Nielsen stated that he had no intention of apologizing to R. Karbauskis, because he saw no reason for it. She said that this conflict is possible.
“It is really possible to cover up that conflict, I have a plan on how to do it, I am talking to the Seimas factions. (…) The statute stipulates that 7 deputies can also be provided, certainly there are opportunities. (…) I am talking to the representatives of the Seimas. the factions, you can really find a solution, “said the president of Seimas.
The ruling majority decided that 6 deputies would work on the Board of the Seimas, although the Statute of the Seimas establishes that there may be 7 deputies.
The head of Seimas said that this could be one of the solutions if the opposition leader could not be found.
“The boiling temperature is not clear which side. I believe that today the statement of the LVŽS elder is not completely founded and leads to emotions, ”said the president of Seimas about R. Karbauskis’s decision to withdraw from Seimas.
