For one or more weeks in July or August in Lithuania, in order to be able to return to Vilnius at any time if necessary, I. Šimonytė, who is going on vacation, will work without vacation for the time being.
“In the event of an emergency in the state, the Prime Minister canceled her vacation plans. Future vacation plans will be considered when the situation allows us,” said Rasa Jakilaitienė, spokesman for the Head of Government.

As the emergency continued, some ministers also canceled the license..
For example, the Minister of the Interior, Agnė Bilotaitė, who planned to rest from 2 to 13 August.
The Ministers of National Defense and Education, Science and Sports Arvydas Anušauskas and Jurgita Šiugždinienė also promised to cancel the summer holidays.
Economy and Innovation Minister Aušrinė Armonaitė, who had been planning a three-week vacation starting on July 7, shortened it and returned to work on July 20.
It is true that due to the fact that he went abroad, the Minister did not participate in the extraordinary session of the Seimas, during which restrictive laws on the rights of migrants were approved and the migration crisis was described as a hybrid aggression.

The president of the Seimas Viktorija Čmilytė-Nielsen did not participate in the meeting of the country’s president, Gitanas Nausėda, with the presidents of the parliamentary parties on Thursday, as, according to members of her team, she is visiting the relatives of her spouse in Denmark.
She was replaced at the meeting by Eugenijus Gentvilas, the eldest of the Seimas Liberal Movement faction.
Illegal migrants and pandemic
Our country is facing a huge crisis of illegal immigration through Belarus.
Almost every day, border guards detain more than 100 foreign nationals who are trying to illegally cross our country’s border.
Especially from the Middle East, especially from Iraq.
In total, more than 3,000 migrants who crossed the border illegally from Belarus to Lithuania have already been detained this year.
There is a great challenge as to where to house foreigners who have arrived illegally and have applied for asylum.
As a result, several local communities in the Šalčininkai district rebelled.
The situation in the country is getting worse due to the coronavirus pandemic: the number of new cases is growing, the delta variety is spreading, and vaccination remains slow.
