On the other hand, the rulers point out that the demands of the Union of Peasants and Greens of Lithuania (LVŽS) led by Ramūnas Karbauskis coincide with the aspirations declared by the Family Movement. And this, the liberal points out, is not only not solidified by the most abundant opposition party, but also forward-thinking.
E. Gentvilas, the largest of the Liberal Movement faction in the Seimas, says he was not too surprised by the decision of the LVŽS Council to force the shadow government of LVŽS together with the LVŽS faction in the Seimas to conduct an interpellation to the Prime Minister. I. Šimonyte if the list of requirements is not met within three weeks.
At the meeting, the LVŽS Council also considered the possibility of recommending to the faction in the Seimas to announce an interpellation to the Ministers of Health, Interior and Foreign Affairs, but decided not to make this recommendation, as the interpellation explains.
“The opposition has to do its job, blow its mouth, roll its eyes, intimidate the ruling majority. It always happens, and it’s no surprise. Another surprising thing is the bravery with which it is said that we will announce the interpellation. If we remember which minister was told that an interpellation would take place, that was Simon Gentvil. “
“Now that the ‘peasants’ have lost another 10 of their members, they are still blowing their jaws and with threatening eyes as they announce the interpellation.” But they don’t have 29 votes. Therefore, everything is a performance. Look at the names of the ministers you are considering recalling. They fully match the requirements of the Family March. And now Simon Gentville is no longer on this list, because the Family March doesn’t require him. So, this performance is destined to please the March of the Families, “the peasants” literally repeat their demands, “said E. Gentvilas.
According to the Liberal, such an attitude of the “peasants” – a kind of flirtation with the Family Movement – in the long run can cause problems only for LVŽS itself.
“When the Family March creates a party, the party will not be criticized by liberals or conservatives, but by its closest competitors: the peasants and the ‘workers’. Today they try to please the Family March organization or the mass of people who support the Family March … But when they become a party, they become the closest competitors. It’s not my garden, not my beans, but it doesn’t seem forward-thinking, “summarized E. Gentvilas.
Conservative: a political community that respects itself and its leaders should not engage in acts of intimidation
The elder of the conservative faction Radvilė Morkūnaitė-Mikulėnienė was also shocked by the peasant ultimatum. The opposition party’s opposition to the rulers for social exclusion seemed to change the politician first. Commenting on Elta’s demands from the “peasants” to the Government, R. Morkūnaitė-Mikulėnienė emphasized that the accusations of increasing social exclusion seem illogical to him. According to her, those who drive hardly increase pensions, the monthly minimum wage, etc. For this reason, the policy pointed out that it is the opposition “peasants” who could contribute constructively to the implementation of these objectives.
“I may be naive, but my expectation and invitation would be to come to the rescue and be constructive in turbulent times. But apparently this is not the case here, ”said the senior of the conservative faction in his response to the campesino ultimatum.
“It is normal for there to be criticism from the opposition. However, I would also like to receive suggestions on how to deal with one thing or another. “Now the whole picture is drawn in black and with such intimidation that … It seems to me that the political community that respects itself and its leaders should not engage in intimidation when society is already tired of the trials that have happened. in our state, “Eltai said.
Like the liberal E. Gentvilas, the content of the ultimatum announced by the peasants to R. Morkūnaitė-Mikulėnienė was somewhat reminiscent of the demands of the representatives of the Family Movement at their activities and at various rallies. However, the politician doubts that meeting these requirements can improve the situation.
“I don’t know if such a requirement will be fulfilled in his dreams, or if it would change the situation significantly. By the way, I think the situation will only get worse because of that ”, concluded the conservative.
R. Karbauskis explained his goal
The interpellation would allow Prime Minister Ingrida Šimonyte to be asked questions, the peasants do not believe that with the current distribution of political forces in the Seimas they can overthrow the government, says Ramūnas Karbauskis, leader of the Lithuanian Peasants and the Union of Greens (LVŽS).
“First of all, there are procedures, the procedures are such that the questions have to be answered, and the members of our group and other groups that would contribute to the interpellation could use that procedure, because there really are a lot of questions about what is happening here. “BNS said on Friday. R. Karbauskis said.
The head of the LVŽS confirmed that the peasants do not believe they can overthrow the government, because the entire minority of the Seimas does not have the necessary 71 votes, and not all the minority representatives would support the interpellation.
“We do not believe that it is possible (to overthrow the government) because we know that the Socdems vote like the conservatives and usually help them to escape and pass laws, on the other hand, the rulers also have a numerical majority. In this situation, we do not think that we can overthrow the government, but we make it clear that this government must resign and we support all public initiatives to remove it, ”said the peasant leader.
According to the peasants, the country’s economy is in a critical situation, at that time, according to them, it is planned to tax forest lands and increase taxes on land and real estate, tax cars, increase the cost of collecting garbage, water extraction, etc.
The LVŽS council states that “fundamental mistakes were made in the management of the COVID-19 pandemic and in the organization of vaccination, which not only opposed society, but also caused serious economic and social consequences, damaged health people’s mental health and the vaccination process “. Raising children. “According to her, the actions of the managers also contributed to the migratory crisis, and it is” managed irresponsibly, without adequate dialogue with local communities, without guaranteeing the transparency of public procurement, the safety of people working in crisis management. “
The Peasant Council considered recommending to its faction in the Seimas that it publish interpellations to the Ministers of Health, Interior and Foreign Relations, but decided not to do so, since interpellations to individual ministers “would not solve the problems of the chaotic state government.”
“I invite all the opposition factions in the Seimas to join the requirements established by the LVŽS for the Government of I. Šimonytė,” said R. Karbauskis, president of the LVŽS.
The peasants issued an ultimatum to the government on Friday
The Union of Peasants and Greens of Lithuania (LVŽS), which met on Friday, calls on the government to move away from a tax reform that increases the tax burden on the population in three weeks, fundamentally change the management of the COVID pandemic- 19 and vaccination strategy, publicly account for migrants’ crisis management costs and set clear timelines Review of asylum applications for illegal migrants will be completed.
If these requirements were not met, the LVŽS Council made a decision to compel the shadow government of LVŽS together with the LVŽS faction in the Seimas to prepare an interpellation for Prime Minister I. Šimonyte.
At the meeting, the Council also considered recommending that the faction in the Seimas announce an interpellation to the Ministers of Health, Interior and Foreign Relations, but decided not to issue this recommendation, since interpellation to individual ministers would not solve the problem of chaos. . state governance.
