“What we will do now is work in the opposition: there will be a shadow government, this shadow government in any case will duplicate both budgets and decisions, providing, showing what our decisions would be.” Did we have it in four years? No, we didn’t, “R. Karbauskis told Knowledge Radio on Wednesday.

He promises that the cabinet will be announced “in December or January”, with Saulius Skvernelis as shadow prime minister.

“The sun and the alternative cabinet or in the shade, I believe, will be much stronger than the one that will form the ruling majority,” said the peasant leader.

R. Karbauskis also promises to be a “constructive opposition”, he intends to support the candidacy of Viktorija Čmilytė, the president of the Liberal Movement, if he is presented, provided that the majority supports the candidate of the opposition to the vice-presidents of the Seimas.

“If your coalition agrees that Čmilytė be appointed president of Seimas, why not vote? In the same way, we hope that the vote of the vice president of Seimas, which we are going to propose, will not be done otherwise”, he claimed.

After counting the votes in Utena, the former Union of Lithuanian Christian Democrats-Union of the Fatherland should have 51 representatives in the Seimas and gather a fragile majority of 75 members with the Liberal Movement and the Freedom Party. The peasants won 32 seats in the elections and will have the second largest faction in parliament.
