In the previous elections, J.Narkevičius ran for office in the Vilnius-Trakai constituency, was elected here in 2008 and 2012, did not win a single-member election in 2016, and was served by a member of the Seimas in a constituency of various members.
However, now J.Narkevičius decided not to compete in his native Trakai. He is running for office in the single-member constituency of Kaunas Centro-Žaliakalnis, where G. Landsbergis was elected in 2016 and is now running again.
“It just came to our notice then. A lot has already been done in Trakai, it’s one thing. The second thing, I think, will be an opportunity to discuss with dear Gabriel and also to tell people that we are people who represent the interests of all Lithuanian citizens “, why you decided to apply in Kaunas, 15 minutes J.Narkevičius explained on Friday.
You need to broaden your horizons.
Previously, the Polish electoral campaign in Kaunas did not present any candidates. But now J.Narkevičius says that the tactics will be different.
“Why can’t we breed in Kaunas? “The same people are all decent citizens, we are also trying for everyone, not just one district,” he said.
However, J.Narkevičius evaluates his chances of being chosen “realistically”.
“Of course I’m realistic,” he said, asking if he assessed that the chances of being elected in Kaunas were probably not high for him.
Nor does he plan a very active campaign, since the electoral campaign will have to be combined with the current position of the Minister of Transport and avoid confusion of interests.
President of the Union of the Fatherland G. Landsbergis, 15 minutes When asked to evaluate a competitor, he wondered if J.Narkevičius’s speeches about wanting to argue were sincere.
“I doubt the sincerity of the Minister. I do not know why he did not choose to argue when we invited the group and never found the opportunity to visit and discuss. An observer may get the impression that his main objective has already been achieved. Because he is already writing about that, “said G. Landsbergis.
