The scheduled proceedings regarding the opposition forces and the appointment of the new minister were set to commence at 1:00 PM. Initially, parliamentarians gathered for the session waited patiently, anticipating the arrival of T. Valio, as there was an initial concern that the politician slated to lead the Ministry of Finance might be delayed.
However, it soon became evident that the Liberal faction would not be able to question or engage with T. Valio during the scheduled meeting. This was because the appointed minister had not received an official invitation to attend the parliamentary group’s session.
Viktoriya Chmilytė-Nielsen, the chairman of the Liberal Movement, expressed surprise at the situation. She stated that the coordination of the meeting had been managed through the Seimas secretariat, which she indicated is standard procedure. Consequently, she found it unusual that the necessary information had not reached T.
Valio directly. During a press conference, Prime Minister M. Sinkevičius announced the composition of his cabinet, stating that the Liberals had conducted their usual activities.
The core issue highlighted was the lack of direct communication, which prevented the minister from participating in the group’s meeting.
