A recent survey indicates that the percentage of residents with a favorable view of President G. Nausėda has been declining for six months, dropping to 42% in January.
A survey conducted between January 8-24 has revealed a continued decline in the number of residents who view President G. Nausėda favorably, with a reported 42% approval rating, down from 45% in December. This marks the sixth consecutive month of decreasing approval ratings for the president, reflecting a significant drop of 25% compared to the same time last year.
The survey also highlighted a similar decline for former Prime Minister Gintautas Paluckas, whose approval rating fell to 20% from 23% just a month prior. Over the past year, Paluckas saw the most pronounced drop among political figures, with a staggering 33% decrease in favorable opinions. Citizens’ increasing discontent suggests a trend of political dissatisfaction among the electorate in Lithuania.
The sustained decrease in approval ratings for both Nausėda and Paluckas indicates a potential shift in public sentiment and may signal challenges ahead for these political figures. As public opinion continues to falter, it raises questions about the effectiveness of their policies and overall governance, particularly in the context of the social and economic issues currently facing the nation.
