At a remote press conference on Wednesday, I. Šimonytė explained that he did not believe that the issue of the alcohol trade on Sundays is the most important issue in life.
“And now I don’t think we should waste time discussing it. We have repeatedly discussed the revision of alcohol bans, the revision of restrictions at the complex. First of all, we must evaluate all the measures that have been taken recently, their effectiveness and then decide on the changes in the complex, and not on each measure individually, ”said the Prime Minister.
Otherwise, according to I. Šimonytė, one will delay the end of the alcohol trade, the second – the beginning of the previous one, and the third – will want to offer something else.
“I do not think this is a constructive discussion.” It is definitely not the most important question for me now in my life, if it is possible to trade alcohol for longer on Sunday, “reiterated the Head of Government.

The Minister of Health, Arūnas Dulkys, explained that at the government meeting there was a lot of talk about people’s mental health, the need to show respect for people.
“So, I think these issues are really irrelevant today. Today, the key message is to reduce the number of contacts, meet basic hygiene requirements for everyone, and try not to seek exceptions. And all the other problems related to people’s lifestyles, today’s healthy lifestyles, when everyone is tense … We just have to all work together. You know, I’ll say it openly, it’s difficult for me to talk about it and it’s difficult to answer such questions when I come in contact with information about people who die every work hour, ”said A. Dulkys.
Two members of the Seimas faction of the Labor Party propose to drop the requirement introduced by the “peasants” to stop selling alcohol on Sundays after 3pm..
