In the "Šiandien Redakcijoje" podcast, Rita, Birutė and Ignas talk with Social Democratic Prime Minister candidate Gintautas Paluckas. We talked about Vilijas Blinkevičiūtė's broken promise to the voters, the coalition with "Nemunos Aušra", the chairman of which was recognized as having violated the Constitution due to anti-Semitic statements, and various public doubts about the personality of Gintautas Paluckos. We also discussed the new Government's vision: defense funding, relations with China, tax increases and whether the SocDems intend to take action on human rights issues such as the Partnership Act. 🤝TELE2 5G home internet plans - free for the first 6 months and a chance to win a Xiaomi TV every day!
