“There are certain proposals, which still have to be considered by the Strategic Committee of the government. The idea is to administer the airports through a concession. By all means, it does not mean their privatization,” Deputy Transport Minister Arijandas Šliupas told BNS.
Meanwhile, Prime Minister Algirdas Butkevičius said that the concession might also be given to a foreign company.
“The Transport Ministry has put forward a new vision of more efficient administration of all three international airports, I mean, Palanga, Kaunas and Vilnius. In line with that concept, the administrator … may even be a strong foreign company provided that it is able to find new carriers and to open new routes,” Algirdas Butkevičius told the LRT Radio on Tuesday.
