R. Žemaitaitis addressed the recent decision made by the LSDP council, stating that the outcome was not surprising. He indicated that the matter had been anticipated since May, referencing both the election of a new party chairman, Mindaugas, and the commencement of negotiations with “Vardan Lithuania.” According to Žemaitaitis, the timing of the formal announcement was necessary to allow the coalition to establish its new guidelines, noting that the decision was only implemented on that day.
When questioned about his reaction to the council’s vote, Žemaitaitis expressed frustration regarding the ongoing public discourse. He characterized the repeated statements, made over the preceding hour and a half, suggesting an imminent change in the coalition structure, as excessive. He questioned the necessity of the continuous discussion, expressing a desire for an end to what he termed the ongoing uncertainty.
His comments framed the recent council decision as a procedural necessity rather than a sudden development. Žemaitaitis suggested that the extended public debate surrounding the coalition’s future was unwarranted. He maintained that the process required time to solidify the foundational principles for the group moving forward.
The focus, he stated, should be on the established guidelines rather than the continuous speculation that has marked the recent days.
