Lithuania’s ethics watchdog probes prime minister over loan controversy


“The proposed investigation will concentrate on the prime minister’s actions, his habits throughout the federal government assembly” the place ILTE was mentioned, Gediminas Sakalauskas, who chairs the fee, stated Wednesday. “We’ll attempt to reply the query of whether or not or not there was any violation of the regulation.” 

Although some opposition lawmakers referred to as on Paluckas to step down following the allegations, the prime minister stated he is not going to, including that the journalists’ “claims are pulled out of skinny air.”

The probe may take as much as three months, in response to Sakalauskas.
