Lithuanian Prime Minister I. Ruginienė recently faced scrutiny over including family members in her official delegation during travels, particularly to the Olympics and a meeting with Pope Leo XIV at the Vatican. The accusations, brought forth by opposition member Agnė Širinskienė, suggest that Ruginienė might be conflating her public responsibilities with private interests by involving family members in government trips. This has led to formal complaints submitted to the Chief Official Ethics Commission (VTEK), questioning the appropriateness of her decisions.
