After a coalition council meeting on Wednesday, Juozas Olekas, the speaker of the parliament in Lithuania, expressed gratitude to journalists for their active involvement and material collection related to the funding of the 'Austerians'. He emphasized that it is now up to relevant government agencies to conduct thorough investigations and provide the necessary answers regarding the funding in question. Olekas indicated that the parliamentary decision on how to proceed will depend on the outcomes of these investigations.

Olekas pointed out that as of now, any speculation about what actions may be taken is premature. He stated, 'We cannot guess what will happen.' Instead, he called for patience, indicating that decisions would be determined based on the conclusions drawn from the agency investigations into the matter. He reassured the public that the appropriate steps would only be taken once all necessary information is gathered.

The context of this statement reflects a larger concern regarding government accountability and the transparency of funding processes in Lithuania. As investigations unfold, they could have significant implications for political actions and public trust in governmental institutions, particularly in relation to how the funding for the 'Austerians' is perceived by the public.
