“The year is going to be exceptional because of the elections, and all governments always face the challenge of doing everything that needs to be done, to keep the country on a straight path and not to stray into the quagmire of populism,” Grybauskaitė told journalists after the meeting.
The president pointed out three main challenges ahead for the country that the current government would have to tackle before the end of its term this year.
“The slowing economy of China will eventually have an impact on life in Europe and Lithuania,” the president said, adding that the effects of the slow-down in China will be felt as early as 2017.
