“It is a disappointing situation when trust in a very important institution has fluctuated, largely due to the actions of its director. I have repeatedly mentioned that the working group created by the Seimas Board has delved into the situation in great detail. , has communicated with all the parties to the conflict and has come to the conclusion that it does not see any way to guarantee the proper functioning of the center. Today, the Seimas will decide on that, “the president of Seimas told reporters at the Seimas on Thursday.

Radvilė Morkūnaitė-Mikulėnienė, the elder of the ruling Union of the Lithuanian Christian Homeland-Democratic Union (TS-LKD), said the ongoing protest, during which sirens were heard in Seimas itself, only strengthened her opinion to support A. Dismissal of Jakubauskas.

According to her, the situation is surprising for LGGRTC.
“Apparently, people are very tired from the pandemic, there is an increase in heat. The evaluations have become uncompromising, only in black and white.

A. Jakubauskas, according to her, simply does not fulfill his duties.
“There were attempts to speak, to give advice, they were not listened to,” emphasized the Seimas member.
When asked if the head of the country’s fears about the connection of the LGGRTC center with other structures are justified, R. Morkūnaitė-Mikulėnienė replied that he hoped the center would return to its normal work.
Skvernelis: the reproaches to Jakubauskas are insignificant
At the time, opposition leader Saulius Skvernelis claimed that the accusations against A. Jakubauskas were “null and void”.
“We certainly have more than one example where there are various conflicts between part of the employee and the employer, but there are completely different and civilized ways instead of being fired after a few months of work. The essential thing is how the center sees its activities in the future ”, emphasized S. Skvernelis.
He stated that the workers and peasants would not participate in the vote on the dismissal of A. Jakubauskas.
“It just came to our attention then. Yes, mistakes have been made, but let’s understand – a person has come to an institution that has not changed for decades, (…) the manager has taken the steps that need to be taken to keep the institution modern, orderly, so that employees can reveal their talents freely, without hindrance. ”, said the opposition leader.
The best solution, according to S. Skvernel, would be the application and mediation of psychological research.
Saulius Skvernelis votes
The discussion about the fate of A. Jakubauskas in office arose after the dismissal of historian M. Jurkutė, who began to speak publicly about the politicization of the centre’s activities.
Support was voiced by some public figures on the Internet, and members of the scientific community organized a campaign of support, which was supposedly aimed at highlighting the threat to freedom of expression and research.
A. Jakubauskas, for his part, was supported by a group of participants in the resistance to the Soviet occupation regime. The Seimas working group led by MP R. Morkūnaitė-Mikulėnienė proposed that the suitability of A. Jakubauskas be voted on in parliament for the post of head of the LGGRTC.
