“Of course, this emotional background is unfavorable for the Government. But there is something else to consider, and what is the alternative. Do we see now that a strong coalition can be formed to replace the current government? I don’t see that. I think this is a factor that suggests that this government will last until the end of its term, “said V. Savukynas on the radio news program” Events and Comments “.
He said that if I. Šimonytė decided to resign, it would probably mean early elections to the Seimas.
“Clearly, there is the so-called black swan, especially in this context of a coronavirus pandemic. God forbid, if there is still some new variety, the situation gets worse, then those emotions can suddenly flare up. And there can be a wide variety of unexpected solutions. But then I would think that the second time in the restored Republic of Lithuania would be snap elections. Because if I. Šimonytė says he is resigning, then it would be difficult to create an alternative coalition, ”explained LRT journalist V. Savukynas.
The political scientist of the University of Klaipeda, Dr. Saulius Šiliauskas assured that now the most important thing is to manage a pandemic and, sometimes, there are simply no good solutions.

It is true, with such a minimal predominance, which is in the Seimas, we see that the members They have a job to work as they sit in the House of Seimas, I think to really guess what will happen in the next 2-3 years, it is so much for this Government to put out those pandemic fires here and now, that is important.
And then anything can happen. (…) We know that there are tensions, but we must understand that the Prime Minister is in such a situation that there are simply no good solutions ”, assured the political scientist S. Šiliauskas in the program“ Events and Comments ”.

He recalled that the next presidential elections should not be forgotten either.
“We must not forget the upcoming presidential elections. I. Šimonytė can really affirm that his trip to the EVS would demonstrate his presidential competencies.
