“In the President’s opinion, there are many convenient and more suitable places for Vilnius to install a beach. When installing such objects in the most important places in Vilnius, it is necessary to take into account the historical context”, – G.Nausėda’s reply, which 15 minutes delivered by A.Bubnelis.
He emphasized that the decision on the beach in one of Vilnius’ main squares was made “without minimal public discussion.”
“Therefore, the President sees it as an act of preparation for the next elections,” said a representative of G. Nausėda.
“It is customary to use anything that draws the attention of the cameras for election campaigns, but there must be things that are sacred even to regular participants in political games,” he added.
According to G. Nausėda, the place of struggle, suffering and rebirth of the nation is “what cannot be used to achieve popularity one day”.
“The freedom we have won with great sacrifices is a responsibility that I don’t see in the arena,” said the president.
The freedom that we have won with great sacrifices is also a responsibility that I do not see in the arena.
Furthermore, he is convinced that the decision of the Vilnius authorities to place the beach in Lukiškės Square “is logically and emotionally incompatible with the Vilnius municipality’s own plans to make sense of the victim of our post-war freedom fighters in Lukiškės Square “.
A.Bubnelis did not disclose whether the President will sign or veto the law on the arrangement of Lukiškės Square under discussion in the Seimas, if such is adopted.
“The president will evaluate the law under consideration in the Seimas and will make a decision on its signature taking into account the content of the law when it is adopted in the Seimas Hall,” he said.
On Friday, during the deliberation procedure, the Seimas, by majority vote, approved the draft decision on the commemorative status of Lukiškės Square.
Once enacted, the plaza can be formed only with accents commemorating the struggles for freedom, use and management of the space “will not be contrary to public order and good morals.”
The rulers took this initiative after the Vilnius authorities installed a temporary beach on Lukiškės Square. The mayor of the capital, the representative of the Freedom Party Remigijus Šimašius, connects this idea with the life and freedom of the city.
“For some, it is just seriousness, concentration, parades and representation. For others, it is also the joy of living, the happiness that we are free, and our children can rest freely in the free and creative capital of a free country,” he said. previously.
When planning the installation of a beach in Lukiškės Square, the public, the municipal council and the administration were not consulted, some say that the beach is incompatible with the historical and memorial significance of the square.
