Paulius Saudargas, president of the Christian-TSK LKD wing, replies diplomatically that “there are serious politicians working for Lithuania in each faction, but everything is decided by the party’s governing bodies.”
“It puts a certain framework in the negotiations, and that process is always very clear, regulated. Personal positions are certainly not found anywhere in this case. It would be too early to comment,” said P. Saudargas.
The public debate on possible coalitions is part of the electoral campaign.
Secondly, another Christian politician, Žygimantas Pavilionis, also says that it is too early to speak about possible coalitions before the elections.
“As we have seen after the previous elections, many people can speak differently, but those languages end in languages and go one way or the other. I think it is very irresponsible to judge those languages now, knowing that politicians sometimes make maneuvers before the elections just to attract a certain number of voters. And only after that, whether successful or not, make the final decisions, “said Ž. Pabellón.
The politician emphasized that the question of possible coalitions should be asked first of the party leader.
“As far as I understand it, our policy now is to try to unite people from all parties who work for and for the state, but have difficulty forming coalitions with those who work against the state. I would not like to name the parties, some of them work very clearly outside certain areas ”, Ž. Pavilion.
Positions on the subject of Astrava will be emphasized
The politician himself would emphasize the position on the Astrava Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) in the debate over the ruling coalitions.
“Knowing that this is related to geopolitics, certain forces in Lithuania and beyond Lithuania are actively forming certain astravic coalitions. Since this will be related to the launch of Astrava and our latest energy struggles, someone will seek to form deep astravical coalitions that pave the way. the way to purchase electricity from this reactor.
I see such efforts, but I still hope that there will be more state thinking in Lithuania, because at least until March the national audience on the Astrava issue was clear in the Seimas, was voiced by the President, and recently by Foreign Minister Linas Linkevičius e even the Prime Minister joined the choir. Saulius Skvernelis, ”said Ž. Pavilion.
The politician also recalled that he personally sought a coalition between conservatives and “peasants” after the 2016 elections.
“I thought whoever wins, we must take responsibility and not allow populist forces, along with communists or Polish-Russian unions, to lead the unknown. But at that point, that line was lost in my group. Some of the statements and current (peasant) actions of the leaders do not inspire confidence, but I do not want to add points, they will be formed by the leaders of my party and, finally, by the people of Lithuania.
If you choose the state leadership, the consolidation of Lithuania’s independence, even in energy, will give us more votes. If they choose the pro-Russian leadership or all kinds of purchases in the elections, as the rulers demonstrate, and place them on the Russian Astrava card, then we will have another situation, “Ž. Pavilion.
He even imagined a coup scenario
In a public internal document, one of the scenarios, Freedom Party predicted that “if the TS-LKD disaster elections and do not have the opportunity to form a government, it is very likely that the opposition TS-LKD representatives of two periods look for some way to join the rulers. “
“If G. Landsbergis opposes this, and the Christian wing politicians do not disperse the positions accumulated during the party classification, a possible scenario of coup / isolation of the current leadership and the formation of a coalition with LVŽS by taking over the nationalist platform. ” In this case, the Freedom Party’s cooperation with the TS-LKD is not possible, ”the document reads.
Mykolas Romeris University (MRU) political scientist Rima Urbonaitė was skeptical about the possibility of such a scenario.
“Overall, I think there are likely to be problems within the TS-LKD after the unfavorable end to the election, and that in the end we will look for those who will be held accountable for not the first consecutive failure.” (…) We see that there is already a situation of dissatisfaction, as well as the fact that there are two wings at the party. But if one wing wanted the government to accept scratching after the elections, it would be careful with such statements, “said R. Urbonaitė.
He also questioned the possibility that conservative cricket players agreed to join a coalition with the left.
“See who they would hypothetically go to the coalition with: the ‘peasants’, the Social Democrats, the ‘workers’.” Imagine if Laurynas Kasčiūnas, Audronius Ažubalis, Žygimantas Pavilionis, separated from the party core, joined the coalition with the Labor Party, ”said R. Urbonaitė.

Conservatives are creating coalition opportunity strategies
The TS-LKD itself, according to an ELTA news agency, discussed in a party internal document with which political forces the conservatives would decide to form a ruling majority, if possible. And among these candidates, not only the liberals led by Aušrinė Armonaitė and Viktorija Čmilytė – Nielsen, whose successful performance is shown in the calculations presented in the analysis, the conservatives are very interested.
The hypothetical simulations presented in the document identify situations in which conservatives would decide to form a ruling majority with ideological opponents: the Social Democrats or the Labor Party, which promises to return to the Seimas.
The preferences of the latest political forces, as indicated in several of the scenarios described, may be essential to give conservatives the opportunity to rally a majority in the Seimas. The Freedom and Justice Party led by Remigijus Žemaitaitis and the Arvydas Juozaitis and Naglis Puteikis bloc, which is being built for the elections, also found their role in the coalition puzzle, TS-LKD’s strategic vision. Under the circumstances, according to the document, these political forces could repeat the role of the National Resurrection Party (TPP) led by Arūnas Valinskas.
