“It just came to our knowledge then. And ALDE itself gave those signs by amending the statute by deciding on Viktor Uspaskich. That statute change was so that he could be removed without consideration within the party,” said Ieva Kačinskaitė-Urbonienė, member del Seimas and SNB “employee” on Monday.

“It was a pretty clear sign that we, along with the party president, are not welcome either,” he added.

She said “no point is made”, maybe after a while she will go back to the same party family.

“Perhaps the situation will change within a year, because we have many points of contact, especially in the economic part of the program. The long-term friendship showed that it did not interfere with the sometimes divergent opinions of the leaders, ”said the MP.

I. Kačinskaitė-Urbonienė also stated that it is possible to join another party family.

The ALDE is an alliance of liberal parties, a political force with the PE group Renew Europe.

Renew Europe removed Uspaskich from the group in late January due to homophobic comments on Facebook.

In a letter of apology to his fellow group members, Uspaskich said his words were too harsh, but said he was not seeking to offend the LGBT community.

Uspaskich posted the scandalous comments on a Facebook livestream in January.

“Today, in some European countries, it is even dangerous to say that you are a representative of natural orientation. I do not want my conversations, the program, to be commented on by pediatricians of all kinds, because it is not a program for them anyway. I mean pedicures, perverts, those to whom fate, life has given so much, it is not their fault that there is some kind of desire that a man with their clothes feel like a woman. Most of these people do not They advertise, but those who put their pimples under their skirts and go out on the street, scream, they are pedicures, perverts and those things should definitely not be tolerated, ”said V. Uspaskich during the broadcast.
