Lithuanian Labour Party wants to nominate energy minister

“Based on the initial process, before the Electoral Action of Poles in Lithuania (LLRA) joined in, it was decided that the Labour Party will delegate its member to this position. We will discuss this at the coalition council. We should not rush however, as that is how mistakes are made,” Graužinienė told the journalists on Thursday.

Moreover, she has reservations regarding some politicians’ intentions to eliminate the Ministry of Energy and incorporate it into the Ministry of Economy. According to her, economic consequences have to be estimated first.
