SocDems picked coalition partners, says Paluckas

Gintautas Paluckas, the Social Democratic Party’s candidate for prime minister, says his party has already decided on inviting concrete parties to form a ruling coalition, refusing to confirm that invitations have already been sent to potential partners.

"We have made our decision," Paluckas tol reporters in the Seimas on Thursday.

"They will receive the proposals in the nearest future," he said.

Paluckas also said that no meeting with potential coalition partners has been scheduled yet.

The Nemunas Dawn party has been invited to join the ruling coalition, sources have told ELTA on Thursday afternoon. Party leader Remigijus Žemaitaitis himself has confirmed the fact to ELTA.
