Butkevičius also ranks second in the list of politicians seen as best representing people’s interest with the approval score of 10.9%.

Meanwhile, Peasant and Green Union’s leader Ramūnas Karbauskis, who caught up with Butkevičius last month, slid to No 3 spot in June with the popularity score of 41.7%.

President Dalia Grybauskaitė continues to top the rankings with the popularity score of 54.8%. She is also seen as best representing people’s interest, with the score of 17.5%.

The top five of most popular politicians also includes Kaunas mayor Visvaldas Matijošaitis, who ranks fourth with the score of 37.7% (up from 31.7% in May), and Social Democratic Foreign Minister Linas Linkevičius, who ranks fifth with 36.3% (down from 37.9%).
