The Minister of Lithuania, R. Kaunas, has recently stated that there is enough parliamentary support for the proposed legislation aimed at establishing a new polygon in Kapčiamestis. During a press conference in Vilnius, Kaunas emphasized that a majority of the Seimas members are in favor of the project, which positions it favorably for legislative approval. This statement is crucial as it guides the legislative process and indicates the government’s confidence in moving forward with the plan.

However, the proposal has not been without controversy. Partners within the governing coalition have expressed concerns, particularly from the parties "Aušriečiai" and segments of the "Valstiečiai" party, who are vocal critics of the plan. Their dissent raises important questions about the political dynamics within the coalition and the implications it may have on future governance, indicating potential fractures that could affect other legislative efforts.

On the other hand, it is noteworthy that the opposition is poised to support the legislation, which may provide an unexpected alliance in its passage. This coalition of support from the opposition could serve as a strategic move to strengthen ties within the legislative body, as well as a demonstration of bipartisanship on what is likely a contentious issue among the electorate.
