“Now we have to go to the community, the representatives of the neighbors and speak, explain what will be in the landfill, because we still don’t know how many people there will be,” he added.
The mayor also said he saw no reason to declare a state of emergency for migrants in the municipality he headed and said it was a last resort.
“Communicate with people”
The mayor of the Šalčininkai district ensures that he will communicate with local communities regarding the accommodation of migrants.
“We communicate with people. The most important thing now is to communicate with the people (…) We meet with the people ”, Z. Palevičius answered the question from BNS, what measures have been taken to reduce tension.
When asked to clarify whether he had gone to Dieveniškės or Rūdninkai, he claimed he was in the latter city on Tuesday, but the protesting people disagreed and are constantly in Dieveniškės.
“I was in Rūdninkai yesterday morning at 11 am, there were no people there, I spoke with the representatives of the body of elders, in the evening there was a deputy mayor, the director of administration spoke. I am leaving today. I am constantly in Dieveniškės and I talk, we talk, we talk with the representatives of the community, ”said the district mayor.
He also said that he does not believe that the municipality pays too little attention to communicating with the local population.
Currently, migrants who have illegally crossed the Belarusian-Lithuanian border are expected to be housed in the former Dieveniškės technical school and the Public Security Service (VST) landfill in Rūdninkai, Šalčininkai district. The residents of Dieveniškės have repeatedly organized protests and declared that they oppose the accommodation of immigrants on the territory of the city. A campaign was also organized at the Rūdninkai landfill a few days ago in an attempt to prevent the accommodation of illegal immigrants in the landfill area. Participants in the campaign were forcibly repelled by public security agents from the blocked road on Monday, and later law enforcement officials explained that such measures had been taken to prevent illegal activities.
