The 21st government officially received its mandate on Tuesday following the approval of the new cabinet program, at which time Prime Minister M. Sinkevičius and other members were sworn into parliament. Regarding political disputes, V.
Sinkevičius publicly questioned Minister T. Valys’s status as a cosmonaut, noting that Valys had not undergone official selection tests. Separately, I.
Ruginienė departed the prime minister’s residence in Turniškės. In addressing potential political challenges, V. Sinkevičius stated that he does not fear opposition interpellation concerning the government’s legitimacy.
The opposition bloc is noted to comprise the Social Democrats (Socdems), the Democratic Union “For the sake of Lithuania,” and the Lithuanian Farmers, Greens and Christian Families Union (LVŽKŠS). Socdems led the coalition that formed the government, which included members from LSDP, the Democratic Union, and LVŽKŠS.
