Lithuania is on the brink of a change of power. Following the clear success of the opposition Social Democrats in the parliamentary elections, their party leader Vilija Blinkevičiūtė wants to form a center-left alliance. Gabrielius Landsbergis, leader of Lithuania’s conservative party and the country’s foreign minister, announced his intention to take a political break following his party’s defeat in the second round of the parliamentary elections on Sunday.
