“The origins of this case are in 2018. in July, when 30 members of the Seimas, including the president of the TS-LKD party, appealed to the Constitutional Court in relation to the reform of the funded pension system. If the court had accepted the conservatives’ demand to repeal the approved laws, it would cost each current retiree 50 euros a month, ”announced S. Jakeliūnas on the social network Facebook.
According to the MEP S. Jakeliūnas, there is an interesting detail: “Most of the text of the petition is a literally copied analysis of laws prepared by lawyers, whose conclusions are favorable for their clients – the pension funds. A judge whose sister is one of the authors of the text had to make a preliminary assessment of the appeal of the members of the Seimas (in fact, pension fund lawyers) before the Constitutional Court! Thus, G. Landsbergis and his colleagues at the Constitutional Court not only sought to defend the interests of the pension funds, but also caused an unprecedented conflict of interest in it ”.
According to him, the then president of the Lithuanian Christian National-Democratic Union (TS-LKD) G. Landsbergis, in 2018. In September, commenting on the pension reform that the then “peasant” government was preparing, DELFI Diena made false statements, that were later not refuted.
“I have been informed that the Chairman of the Budget and Finance Committee, Stasys Jakeliūnas, visited the Constitutional Court and threatened the judges of the Constitutional Court not to accept this question {…} This information is provided, if true, the approval of a specific law “, – then G. Landsbergis spoke on the program.
“Less than an hour after this absurd accusation by Mr. Landsbergis, the President of the Court unequivocally denied it. Although I have repeatedly asked for this to be done publicly, Mr Landsberg has so far been unable to substantiate his claims. So there was nothing left but to go to court ”, announced S. Jakeliūnas on the social network Facebook.
