The Prime Minister of Lithuania urged the citizens of the country not to celebrate on May 9, when they will celebrate the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War.
"My recommendation is simply not to celebrate tomorrow and stick to our European tradition of what and how to celebrate," Gintautas Palutskas said, BaltNews reports.
To those who disagree with the appeal, and, as he put it, to "provocateurs", the head of the Lithuanian government reminded that the special services and law enforcement "will do their job."
"There are certain signs that there is a possibility that some small groups of people may try to arrange provocations or behave inappropriately, but the Security Department (DGB) has warned the state leadership about this," Gintautas Palukas said in the Seimas.
