Criminals are ruling Lithuania: horrible discussion between Kasčiūnas and Svaras about the extermination of disloyal citizens

 

“One would like to believe it, but it was precisely the discussion between Laurynas Kasčiūnas and Gabrielius Liaudanskas-Svaras about the killing of disloyal citizens that took place on May 29, 2025 on “Kasčiūnas TV”. Former Minister of National Defense L. Kasčiūnas and public figure Svaras spoke publicly about the war in Ukraine and possible scenarios for the defense of Lithuania.

 

However, the conversation took an unexpected turn – it was mentioned that one of the functions of the state armed forces could be getting rid of disloyal citizens. This idea was not expressed figuratively or metaphorically – it was a serious consideration of a real model of action in the event of war.

 

Even more surprising is that this discussion did not receive any official reaction – neither from the Ministry of National Defense, nor from the military command, nor from the President, nor from the Seimas, nor from other responsible institutions.

 

As if it were self-evident that in the event of war, the state can divide its citizens into “loyal” and “disloyal” and eliminate the latter. This is no longer political hyperbole, but the beginning of a dangerous ideological construction in which civil rights become dependent on the subjective assessment of loyalty, and not on the principles of the rule of law.

 

When a politician, a former Minister of National Defense, the leader of one of the most influential parties – the Homeland Union – Lithuanian Christian Democrats – speaks about such scenarios, historical parallels inevitably arise. We remember the periods when there was public talk about the “purification” of the nation, which was soon followed by mass episodes of repression, persecution and murder. When today there is public discussion about the liquidation of “disloyal” citizens, it is difficult to avoid this dangerous historical analogy.”
