LVŽS, Social Democrats and “workers” will work together in opposition, will share the leadership position

The leader of the “peasants” also confirmed that the three opposition parties, the Social Democrats, the LVŽS and the Labor Party, had decided to work together.

“The agreement is that we will form a coalition of opposition factions and then we will have an opposition leader, he will rotate, until now there is consensus, but there is still no signed document,” said R. Karbauskis.

According to him, the opposition leader will be nominated for a session of the Seimas, and then there will be a rotation. The first leader of the opposition will be delegated by the faction whose candidate has not delegated any vice president of the Seimas.

LVŽS signed a statement stating why it did not support the new rulers

The LVŽS also signed a statement on the work in the opposition, indicating the main values ​​of the faction and the foundations of the work program in the Seimas.

The text of the declaration also establishes that a large part of the programmatic provisions declared by the coalition formed by the new rulers – the Conservatives, the Liberal Movement and the Freedom Party – do not comply with the “fundamental values ​​and electoral programs represented by the LVŽS “. As a result, as explained in the statement, the “campesino” group decided to work in the opposition.

According to R. Karbauskis, the differences in attitudes towards the new rulers can be seen in the areas of traditional family, drug policy, poverty reduction and drug legalization.

“(…) We will be a constructive opposition, we will form a shadow government, we will present bills, proposals and thus we will seek to implement our obligations to the electorate,” says Ramūnas Karbauskis, the largest of the LVŽS faction.
