President’s adviser praises Lithuanian conservative party’s chairman election

“We saw the determination of a large political community. We saw a major internal vote that mobilized the party and attracted huge public attention,” Mindaugas Lingė, the presidential adviser on internal issues, told the Žinių Radijas news radio on Tuesday morning.

In his words, an election based on democratic principles contributes to building mature politics.

“We can call it certain political renewal whose success could be an example for other political parties as well,” Lingė said.
