According to M Sinkevičius, the conservatives’ idea of ​​a sharp review of what is happening in the EVS is an example of the application of double standards and political hypocrisy.

“Conservatives have not cared about the issue for ten years, they have not filed any complaints about why Dalia Grybauskaitė is going to the EVS. It is clear that now, in a special moment of a pandemic, that question is being asked simply to expand her influence. , not because they are genuinely concerned with the interests of the state.

Conservatives did not care about the issue for ten years, they did not file any complaints about why Dalia Grybauskaitė goes to EVS.

We will not support such and similar hypocritical conservative initiatives, in which we are simply trying to reconcile the accounts with the president, “says M.Sinkevičius.

In his words, the public deliberations of the conservatives to bring this issue to the Constitutional Court and to regulate by law what is happening in the EVS, are just one more way of putting pressure on the president.

“All those ideas are not in the time and place, but this is the conservative style of operation. Attempts to consider in the Seimas and regulate the powers of a president who does not like by law, then ask the CC to clarify whether All of this is not in conflict with the Constitution – all of this would only increase tensions and conflicts in the state.

The president has all the constitutional powers to address the main foreign policy issues, so far he represents the country in the EVS and can continue to do so successfully, ”says M.Sinkevičius.

15 minutes recalls that the conservatives are considering the possibility of passing a law in the Seimas that provides for Lithuania to be represented in the European Council not by the president but by the prime minister.

The initiators affirm that the issues discussed at the summits are related to the competence of the Government, there is no possibility of ensuring that the President adheres to the mandate approved by the Seimas and the Government, and the President does not participate in European parties.
