00:00:04indicator, due to the contraction, I will tell you this, it contracts as much as
00:00:08there is space, because I really guarantee that when a
00:00:11new market is made and there will be more places, it will fill up, no
00:00:15doubt, because the popularity of this market is there, only

00:00:40FIFA President Gianni Infantino, criticized by his comrades,
00:00:43remains at the head of the world football
00:00:45organization.
00:00:54Good evening, tonight, in the first topic of the day, Kazimiros
00:00:57Prunskienė's government, health protection. Juozas Olikas, who served as minister,
00:01:01is now the Speaker of the Seimas. Good
00:01:04evening. Good evening. Mr. Olikas, today, saying goodbye
00:01:08at Antakalnis cemetery, you said that Kazimiera
00:01:11Prunskienė had to make decisions when there was
00:01:14no experience, no textbooks. Indeed, the
00:01:18decisions on how to create an independent Lithuania, a democratic
00:01:21state, lay with her government. How
00:01:25do you remember those years, did you see
00:01:28fear, faith, excitement, or was it
00:01:31mostly courage in Kazimiera Prunskienė's actions?
00:01:35For me, Kazimiera Prunskienė was truly an example for us,
00:01:39such an inspiring person, a leader who
00:01:42united us by inviting us to work in the first government,
00:01:45and in the government
00:01:48itself, encouraging initiative, "let's do it, let's not be afraid, let's move
00:01:52forward," and she herself demonstrated that, both here in
00:01:55Lithuania and by representing
00:01:59Lithuania to the international community during visits, also through her
00:02:02professionalism, such a,
00:02:05well, surge of energy,
00:02:09she truly showed that leadership by communicating with
00:02:13the leaders of major countries and
00:02:16presenting the idea of a free Lithuania, because at that time, many still
00:02:20doubted, many of those especially internationally
00:02:23spoke about such security, support
00:02:25for Gorbachev's reforms of the Soviet
00:02:29Union leader, and that they should not
00:02:32harm him, so the question of our independence
00:02:36recognition was received very cautiously,
00:02:39and her leadership, her
00:02:43example, and convincing argumentation
00:02:46seem to have given a significant
00:02:48impulse for a free Lithuania to be
00:02:51recognized in the world, and that we,
00:02:54let's say, without fearing those internal disputes,
00:02:58perhaps sometimes even tensions, which existed and eventually her
00:03:01resignation,
00:03:04that these reforms need to be done, it needs
00:03:07to be changed, not, not, not to wait and move forward,
00:03:10not to look back, or how someone will criticize you. Do I understand
00:03:14correctly that the strengthening of Lithuania's position abroad, in the international
00:03:18arena, you would perhaps even name as her most important personal
00:03:22merit, or were those reforms carried out here in
00:03:25Lithuania, the institutional reorganizations or creations
00:03:28no less important? Well, for me, "I think that there is no need to oppose them here, because
00:03:32those changes were needed in Lithuania, those
00:03:35ordinary problems needed solving. Remember,
00:03:38we lived under blockade conditions, they provided
00:03:42not only fuel, not only energy resources, we had to find a way to
00:03:45supply Lithuania, they did not provide medical
00:03:48supplies either, we were stuck everywhere, and all
00:03:52those things had solutions, but international
00:03:55recognition was especially important, and
00:03:59if our other leaders were not very accepting or agreeing, then she,
00:04:02with those contacts, with such
00:04:05visibility and energy, truly
00:04:09broke that ice, and
00:04:12our state's Prime Minister
00:04:16was received by the leaders of the largest foreign countries.
00:04:20Today, saying goodbye, you also mourned Kazimira Srunskienė's
00:04:23conviction that the state must look
00:04:26forward, not back.
00:04:30On the other hand, over time, Prunskienė was
00:04:33accused of a peculiar inclination towards Moscow.
00:04:36How did you evaluate this then and how do you
00:04:40see this stage of Prunskienė's
00:04:44life from today's perspective? Well, you see, as you live another 20
00:04:47years and gain that experience, you see
00:04:51Russia's behavior now in Ukraine,
00:04:54the aggression, you evaluate it a little differently, but you need
00:04:58to understand that at that time... "that responsibility was there and
00:05:02the question of our state's survival
00:05:05was very important, how can we establish those
00:05:08economic contacts, how can we provide our people with the most
00:05:12basic goods and services,
00:05:16so that required a certain wisdom, not just
00:05:19to cut and not to look, well, now
00:05:22we would say diplomacy's attempt to contact and
00:05:26so on with its strong position, so I
00:05:30think that well, this would be a political evaluation
00:05:34now, either way, but it seems that today
00:05:37we remember her as a personality, as a personality,
00:05:40truly such... spirited, energetic,
00:05:43principled, unifying personality, because she truly
00:05:47united, not divided, who left a very
00:05:50significant contribution to the restoration of a
00:05:53free Lithuania. On the other hand, do you think that all these
00:05:56things, both perhaps relations with the United
00:05:59Russia party, that partnership,
00:06:03praises in Kaliningrad for the planned nuclear power plant,
00:06:06even the titles of duchesses from some Russian organizations,
00:06:10willy-nilly, will come up when the question arises of considering
00:06:13the question of commemorating
00:06:16the first restored Lithuanian prime minister, and here we can probably
00:06:20remember that there was controversy about
00:06:23Algirdas Brazauskas's memory when, for example,
00:06:27a monument was considered in the historical presidency in
00:06:31Kaunas, then the president said that we do not have a systemic
00:06:34approach to how to commemorate such individuals, would you agree with that and do you
00:06:38perhaps even have a vision of how that commemoration
00:06:41should be formed, that policy? Well, I think
00:06:45that those traditions will form, we are a relatively young state, and
00:06:48to say how it should be, but I think
00:06:52that we need to look at it from
00:06:55today's knowledge and experience
00:06:58baggage, how people yearned at that time. I
00:07:01was really quite close to
00:07:04Kazimira Prunskienė, both during the Sąjūdis years and
00:07:08later in the USSR People's Deputies
00:07:11Corps. In Moscow, where we raised the question of independence,
00:07:15where we convinced all
00:07:18Soviet Union delegates to vote for
00:07:21the annulment of the Ribbentrop-Molotov
00:07:24Pact. So, at that time, it truly required
00:07:28courage and knowledge, and a certain
00:07:31diplomatic maneuvering, what to
00:07:34do. So, let's respect,
00:07:37let's take care of ourselves, because we are not that big, we don't have
00:07:40that many leaders who truly deserve to be honored, because they
00:07:44at their time showed a truly proper example
00:07:48and united people and led, led our country to
00:07:51freedom. Mr. Olikas, on the other hand, from the perspective of time, now we can
00:07:55also state, being in today's situation, that the threat from Russia
00:07:59is not diminishing, on the contrary, it is increasing, so I want
00:08:03to talk about that for the remaining time. Lithuanian
00:08:06intelligence and politicians are increasingly loudly, both from neighboring countries
00:08:10and already American intelligence, according to our
00:08:12information, warning about possible Russian attacks
00:08:16in the Baltic states, Poland, perhaps against
00:08:19critical infrastructure. How do you, as one of the state
00:08:22leaders, evaluate the current level of threat?
00:08:26I think we don't need to be scared, we really
00:08:29have enough information tracking, both
00:08:33ourselves and from our allies, to
00:08:36know how to prepare to prevent these things, and
00:08:40all those steps that today... are being taken by
00:08:43politicians, the Seimas, the government,
00:08:46by allocating resources for defense, by coordinating their
00:08:50actions with allies, they truly, as
00:08:53never before, make Lithuania safer. Therefore, neither
00:08:57to run anywhere, nor to buy villas anywhere, nor otherwise
00:09:01to leave Lithuania, here it is truly possible to invest,
00:09:04it is possible to get things in order, and all those steps that are being taken in
00:09:08the field of defense, it seems, they truly always
00:09:12make it more and more difficult to
00:09:16violate our borders, so I think that yes,
00:09:19anything can happen here, you know, with such an aggressor
00:09:23I cannot predict what attempts there might be, but
00:09:26it seems that both the Lithuanian army and our
00:09:29ally, the German army brigade coming,
00:09:33both the Americans who are with us, we
00:09:37are prepared to minimize any
00:09:40possible provocations. I don't know if one can
00:09:44agree with the statement that our borders are becoming increasingly vulnerable, considering
00:09:48the drone incident with an explosive device at Leipzig airport in Germany,
00:09:51and very recently, in Poland,
00:09:55a Russian rocket that flew and crashed, and here
00:09:59experts name those
00:10:02dangers that exist. For example, in the case of Poland, insufficient NATO
00:10:06reaction, perhaps the necessity not to use, to activate
00:10:09the fourth NATO article, some say. "that if Russia
00:10:13tried to stage, for example, attacks, that drones
00:10:16are launched, for example, from the Baltic states, we might not be able to
00:10:20trace and prove that it is not true. What
00:10:24lessons do you see?" and do you think we still have homework
00:10:28to do? Well, I think that our cooperation with Ukrainians,
00:10:31who have the most experience at the moment,
00:10:34is truly very intensive, we
00:10:37ourselves need to direct our capabilities, both
00:10:41to production and to scientific invention, and to cooperation, and
00:10:45to analyze this entire situation, every new
00:10:48case, both with our allies, and it seems
00:10:51that this is happening quite intensively. Of course,
00:10:55I say, you can't say that nothing ever happens, but
00:10:58if we look back two or three years and
00:11:02now, we are safer today, we are
00:11:05more mature, we truly are capable of those things. I've had to
00:11:08visit many Lithuanian
00:11:12manufacturers who make drones, who research, I've had
00:11:15to talk to Ukrainians in their factories and talk to their
00:11:19specialists, so this cooperation is indeed
00:11:22happening and our experience is
00:11:25accumulating, and similarly with allies. If before they used to say that
00:11:28you Lithuanians are somehow Russophobes and you only talk
00:11:32about it, now they admit that our insights and
00:11:36warnings are correct, and they are also changing their
00:11:39decision-making. Look, at one point we only had the German
00:11:43battalion, and that was already in 2016, 2017, when we
00:11:47were negotiating at that time, that was already a great achievement, now it's
00:11:50a brigade, and the brigade has its own protection and other things, and
00:11:54we learn from each other, we consult,
00:11:57I think we are on the right track. Mr. Olikas, and also from the latest
00:12:01Lithuanian politics, today the ratings were published, do
00:12:05social democrats feel safer, as you said, all in Lithuania can feel that way, considering
00:12:09that those traditional competitors,
00:12:12the conservatives, still quite clearly lead. The
00:12:15threat to social democrats might be another one, in third place, the opposition
00:12:19pushed the Dawn of Nemunas and here the gap from
00:12:22social democrats is barely less than 2 percentage
00:12:25points. Remigijus Žemaitaitis being in opposition and truly
00:12:29taking every opportunity
00:12:31to criticize you, their coalition partners, these
00:12:34yesterday's recordings saying,
00:12:37well, they called the decisions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs stupid and
00:12:41so on. Would you see a threat to social democrats here? I think that
00:12:45in our service to the Lithuanian people, both in local government, our
00:12:48mayors, council members, and in parliament, now especially
00:12:51in the new government, it seems that these works
00:12:55and our commitments to the people will be fulfilled, and they will see them,
00:12:58and their decision will be correct, we will accept it as it will be, and I believe
00:13:02that social democrats can expect
00:13:19opened at the Jonas Mekas Visual Arts Center in Vilnius,
00:13:23in which, through Jonas Mekas's films, the poetic gaze of the experimental filmmaker
00:13:27into everyday life and searches for a distinctive cinematic language
00:13:30are revealed. The exhibition "Poets Never Sleep"
00:13:34is based on three Jonas Mekas films: "Walk,"
00:13:37"Reminiscences of a Journey to Lithuania," and "Walden." The films, created
00:13:41in different decades, reveal Mekas as an experimental filmmaker,
00:13:44highlight his poetic gaze and ability to turn
00:13:48everyday life into cinema, says the exhibition's curator. He is
00:13:52such a powerful figure, perhaps
00:13:55a little later understood and accepted
00:13:58in Lithuania, but speaking of him,
00:14:02well, he is an inspiration,
00:14:05in a global sense,
00:14:07and I also really like his phrase, perhaps I won't quote it exactly
00:14:11accurately, but the essence is that "I am a
00:14:14poet, therefore I make films," which also says a lot
00:14:18about him as a poet, about
00:14:21well, a creator who relies on poetry as... Sebastian says,
00:14:30his father's work spanning seven decades is distinguished by
00:14:34the search for cinematic narrative forms and a diary-like
00:14:37perspective on life. The films exhibited are personal
00:14:41memories for his son, in one of them, "Reminiscences of a Journey to Lithuania,"
00:14:45he also appears.
00:14:49He searched for a long time for the right form for the material he filmed,
00:14:52inspired by One Thousand and One Nights. He created
00:14:55a magical narrative that draws the viewer in. In
00:14:59each film, his artistic language is different, but Mekas's style is easily
00:15:03recognizable.
00:15:07In the exhibition, Mekas's work is supplemented by the works of other artists.
00:15:10Ugnius Gelguda's film "Paradise Tree" was filmed in Vilnius,
00:15:14in Naujininkai, and inspired by Mekas's walk through
00:15:17New York's SoHo district. Also on display is the exhibition's
00:15:20curator Audra Vau's "Mekas video
00:15:23portrait." It is about being able to
00:15:27be with him, simply, even if many people
00:15:31are standing and watching that video, each of them gets
00:15:34some personal contact, and at the
00:15:38same time, since he films everything in that video,
00:15:41he participates in all these processes, and
00:15:45it is exhibited in such a way that you constantly see him from everywhere, a little bit,
00:15:48as if he is sitting on the windowsill and filming everything that
00:15:52is happening. The exhibition "Poets Never Sleep"
00:15:55at the Jonas Mekas Visual Arts Center will run until August
00:15:5918th.
00:16:02The Museum of Applied Arts and Design hosts an exhibition by artist
00:16:05Danas Aleksa called "Foot. Forehead, Gum, and Key,"
00:16:09linking the exhibition with the building's
00:16:11history.
00:16:14Danas Aleksa's exhibition begins outdoors at the entrance to the Museum
00:16:18of Applied Arts and Design. A concrete
00:16:21mixer is exhibited here. The artist often works with so-called
00:16:24readymades, transforming everyday objects into art objects
00:16:28and connecting them with the context he needs. In this
00:16:31case, the history of the building where the exhibition is displayed. A concrete
00:16:35mixer, an association with cannons once stored there,
00:16:39an arsenal, a weapons storage facility, is being transformed
00:16:42into a museum, so perhaps that's the first
00:16:45thing, then you come into the space itself,
00:16:49meaning you explore it. For me as an artist,
00:16:52the space I enter is very important, and often
00:16:56that is the starting point. And so, somehow, that
00:17:00relationship with space, both visual and
00:17:03conceptual. The Museum of Applied Arts and Design is located in the Lower
00:17:07Castle's old arsenal's eastern wing. In the 16th
00:17:11century, Queen Elizabeth Habsburg's residence was established
00:17:14here. Later, the building became the main
00:17:17storage for weapons and ammunition of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania.
00:17:20Even during Soviet times, the semi-demolished
00:17:24Renaissance building housed Soviet army military personnel. Only
00:17:28in 1986,
00:17:30according to architect Evaldas Purlys's designs, was it adapted
00:17:34for museum needs. The initial idea of Danas was probably
00:17:37that this museum
00:17:40once, well, before that it was the residence of Sigismund Augustus's
00:17:44first wife, and after that, for many
00:17:48years it was a weapons storage, and
00:17:51that from a weapons storage it became a cultural
00:17:53institution, it was this exhibition was like a
00:17:57wish that it would be so, that we would no longer
00:18:01need weapons storage facilities and would not have to go back.
00:18:05Danas Aleksa, interpreting the history of the museum
00:18:08building, turned his gaze to the arch, one of the oldest architectural
00:18:11elements. The exhibition title "Foot, Forehead, Gum, and Key"
00:18:15refers to the terminology of arch masonry, words of architectural
00:18:18language describing different parts of an arch.
00:18:22The author invites to look at the historical layers of the building's memory,
00:18:25transformations, symbols, and meanings. It was always
00:18:29interesting that these are humanized names,
00:18:32as if associated with the human body, so
00:18:36anthropologically. "A house is also like a
00:18:40second shell of the human body, hiding
00:18:43from rain, from thunder, from something that
00:18:47creates a sense of
00:18:50security, a sense of
00:18:53security, and somehow
00:18:56I thought it was related to the human body. Danas Aleksa's exhibition, "Foot, Forehead,
00:19:00Gum, and Key," will run at the Museum of Applied Arts and Design until August
00:19:0424th.
00:19:20Infantino, criticized by his closest associates, will continue to lead
00:19:24the world football organization. After a scandal erupted over the intention to open
00:19:27the World Cup to investors, FIFA leaders apologized for such plans,
00:19:31but Infantino expressed full support. Opponents claim
00:19:35Infantino's career has failed, and the World Football Federation needs a new
00:19:38leader.
00:19:41The FIFA president proposed establishing a company to organize the most important
00:19:44football events, FIFA Forward Enterprise, and after selling
00:19:4720% of shares, he wanted to distribute the 4 billion dollars
00:19:51to FIFA members and increase their funding
00:19:54for several years. Following the Swiss's intentions, three major
00:19:58continental football confederations rebelled, UEFA threatened to boycott
00:20:02the World Cup. Infantino's plans were also criticized within
00:20:05FIFA.
00:20:07The federation admitted its mistake, and the president was given unanimous
00:20:10support. A FIFA statement said that the World Football
00:20:13Federation would not tolerate any attacks or doubts about its
00:20:16transparency. Without declarations, opponents are not convinced.
00:20:19Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney says Infantino made a fatal
00:20:23mistake. The idea that proper governance
00:20:27means not disclosing anything important to closest advisors, let alone
00:20:30a concrete proposal, is disastrous, you lose
00:20:34trust in such a person. FIFA has its own procedures
00:20:38for making decisions. I no longer trust Mr. Infantino. I will give
00:20:41an example. Carlos Cordeiro is an honest man whom I have known
00:20:45for over three decades, he was Infantino's advisor and
00:20:48had experience in all matters, but he was
00:20:51not consulted, this is not how any
00:20:55business is run, let alone something that requires such global
00:20:58responsibility as
00:20:59football.
00:21:02The investors of the company envisioned by Infantino are united by the
00:21:06family circle of United States President Donald Trump, among the
00:21:09interested parties in FIFA's commercial rights is Trump's son-in-law Jared
00:21:13Kushner's brother Joshua. Infantino's close friendship with Trump and
00:21:16the US leader's influence on the Swiss is particularly evident
00:21:20in organizing this year's World Football Championship. UEFA
00:21:23labeled Infantino's plans as opaque behind-the-scenes dealings. Europeans were angry
00:21:27because there were no consultations on this matter. Europe has not forgotten
00:21:31the opaque decisions regarding the right to host World Cups.
00:21:34UEFA, responding to FIFA's statement, added: Infantino did not dispel
00:21:38doubts. The apology means nothing. European countries are still
00:21:41prepared to boycott the World
00:21:43Cup.
00:21:46I think Gianni Infantino has made a lot of terrible
00:21:50decisions in recent years, he clearly lacks the necessary qualities, he is not
00:21:53the leader that FIFA needs, either he should
00:21:56resign, or football federations must find a suitable
00:21:59candidate who would challenge him and
00:22:02defeat him.
00:22:04UEFA and the Confederation of North, Central American, and
00:22:08Caribbean Association Football, which oppose FIFA, have approximately
00:22:1190 votes. To remove Infantino, 106
00:22:14votes would be needed in the ongoing elections. The final decision
00:22:18will be made by Asian countries. The best candidate to become the new
00:22:21FIFA president is named as the current vice-president,
00:22:25Viktor Montagliani,
