Access to the Government House in Vilnius was also blocked on Wednesday morning. It is fenced with a metal fence and a stop strip. Police teams are also on duty here.

On Wednesday, the government intends to decide on new restrictions for people without immunity against COVID-19.

On Tuesday, a massive protest took place in Vilnius near the Seimas, which later escalated into riots.

At the end of the working day and after the extraordinary session of the parliamentarians, the protesters had blocked all the exits of the parliament building and blocked the doors of the inner courtyard of the Seimas. The members of the Seimas were able to leave the palace, but were immediately surrounded by protesters and began to express their indignation, insults and some received threats.

Initially it was impossible to get out of the Seimas by car.

At night, riot police pushed the protesters away from the patio door and made an exit hall. Officials used tear gas. The participants of the campaign threw bottles, stones, flares, fired firecrackers and so on at the officers.

26 people were arrested and about 10 officers were injured in the riots near the Seimas on Tuesday night, police said.

A pre-trial investigation was launched into the organization of the riots.
