The State Language Inspectorate calls on all political parties and self-government institutions not to take the ideological and political rumors of the Lithuanian language hostage and to respect its constitutional status.
On Thursday morning, Audrys Antanaitis, chairman of the State Commission for the Lithuanian Language, was outraged that, in commemoration of the June 23 uprising, Vilnius Mayor Remigijus Šimašius had opened a beach on Lukiškės Square in the capital for the money of the municipality and without the approval of the council.
“I consider this not only as a mockery of the painful events in Lithuanian history, as a contempt for places worthy of respect, but also as a moral crime against the Lithuanian language. The visible English inscriptions around the territory demonstratively demonstrate that R. Šimašius deliberately spat in the Lithuanian language. And not for the first time “, – read the statement of A. Antanaitis.
