Russia's political analyst: Uspaskikh – our man in Lithuania
The election leader Labour Party is planning the future coalition already; most likely it will be cooperating with the Social Democrats, who are close to them in their beliefs, reports LETA/ELTA.
Labour Party's leader Viktor Uspaskikh makes a history of our man in Lithuania, but not in the utilitarian sense which Lithuanian conspiracy followers and Russian patriots stress, believing that it was actually pro-Russian forces that won in Lithuania with the help of Uspaskikh.
Lithuania's province votes for Uspaskikh because they believe: this is why he is a millionaire – he has to share with his fellow citizens, says the Russian analyst in his article.
"Uspaskikh is a very typical story of becoming rich in a poor but cozy European country. The Social Democrats there are no longer called "ex-communists" even though, it seems that they are the last heirs of the communist party () these heirs are regular favorites of all election, including the recent one," Dubnov says.
Viktor Uspaskikh is a very Lithuanian story. And he is a very much our person in Lithuania. It is very likely that it will be him whom Lithuanian President Dalia Grybauskaite will be forced to allow forming a new government," the political analyst says in his article.
