Lithuanian MPs to probe vaccination disinformation in minority communities 4 Laurynas Kasčiūnas / J. Stacevičius/LRT Two Lithuanian parliament committees are to look into alleged impact of disinformation and propaganda in the country's predominantly Russian and Polish-speaking region amid slow take-off of vaccination. “The pandemic and slow vaccine rollout in this region show that something is wrong in the public space there,” said Laurynas Kasčiūnas, the conservative MP chairing the Committee on National Security and Defence (NSGK). Referring to Lithuania's southeastern areas around the districts of Šalčininkai and Vilnius, he said “we need to look into what challenges this region is facing and what narratives are dominating”.
