The Journalists' Professional Association of Lithuania has publicly urged the resignation of D. Radzevičius from his position due to serious concerns about transparency and the reliability of leadership within the organization. The association highlighted that the role of the Journalistic Ethics Inspector requires extremely high standards of accountability and trust from both the public and the journalism community. The current situation raised legitimate questions about Radzevičius's trustworthiness following his inadequate explanations regarding significant financial matters.

Moreover, the association pointed out potential conflicts of interest tied to Radzevičius’s long-term leadership and his previous management of the organization's finances. The statement on social media emphasized that the organization is now faced with considerable obligations, including financial commitments tied to Radzevičius himself that could pass on to his children. Even though such actions may be legally permissible, the underlying nature and context can appear to prioritize personal gains while attempting to avoid reputational damage.

This call for resignation not only sheds light on internal issues within the organization but also reflects broader concerns over ethics and integrity in journalism in Lithuania. The emphasis on accountability and the integrity of leadership is crucial in fostering trust in media institutions, especially in a time when public confidence in media is paramount. The outcome of this situation may have lasting implications for the direction of the organization and the state of journalism ethics in the region.
