M. Sinkevičius commented in an interview with Elta regarding the organizational structure surrounding the Prime Minister’s office. He stated that the Prime Minister, as a leader, requires substantial support to manage the complexities of the government.
Sinkevičius expressed that he sees a clear need for the Prime Minister to have a dedicated coordinator—a “right or left hand.” He suggested that the Social Democrats might be a suitable source for this individual, someone whom the Prime Minister knows well and trusts. This person, he argued, should manage the Government’s Chancellery. According to Sinkevičius, the role is crucial because the Prime Minister’s duties inherently involve managing the Cabinet, coordinating relations between the President and Parliament, and organizing various political actions.
He emphasized that an individual dedicated to managing the Chancellery would be responsible for organizing and harmonizing these processes. The primary objective of appointing such a coordinator, he noted, would be to prevent the Chancellery from becoming another source of internal tension or political discord. He stressed that having this centralized management structure would streamline operations within the prime minister’s team.
By establishing this organizational support, Sinkevičius believes the government could operate more smoothly and efficiently, minimizing potential points of friction in the executive branch.
