TS-LKD Executive Secretary Martynas Prievelis notes that the Council vote took place after the party’s Oversight Committee submitted a proposal to the TS-LKD Council, as the party’s highest governing body between congresses, to decide if Landsberg approves as party chairman for four years.
On Friday, 15 candidates proposed by the party branches refused to participate in the election of the president of the TS-LKD and supported the candidacy of G. Landsbergis. In accordance with the procedure for electing the president of the TS-LKD and after the party’s Supervisory Committee submitted proposals on the further course of the elections, the party council on Sunday confirmed G. Landsbergis as party president for another four-year period. ”Says M. Prievelis.
“I appreciate the determination of the comrades to firmly support the right-wing leadership of the center, which was also supported by the Lithuanian people during the elections. Faced with the challenges posed by the pandemic, this consensus is important and significant. We must focus on what it is more important today: to unanimously ensure the smooth and efficient work of the Government, so that the State and society return to a normal rhythm of life as soon as possible and continue the work that we committed ourselves to in our election program, “Landsbergis said on Sunday. .
The TS-LKD divisions nominated a total of 16 candidates for party presidents, but all but G. Landsbergis withdrew their candidacies, arguing that in a special pandemic situation, concentration and united work was needed in the Seimas and the Government, and internal competition would hinder this.
Therefore, the party’s Oversight Committee this week proposed to the TS-LKD Council, as the highest body among the conventions, to de facto approve the election of Chancellor G. Landsbergis as party president for another term.
Landsbergis’ new term will begin at the party congress with the announcement of a resolution on the election of the president.
Adapting to the circumstances of the pandemic, the TS-LKD Congress is scheduled to take place this spring.
G. Landsbergis, 39, has been in charge of TS-LKD since 2015.
