“It’s in our palms whether or not this course of turns into Lithuania’s success or failure story. … For a few years Lithuania was a tolerant nation, however within the Holocaust our nation collapsed morally and went together with the extermination of the Jews. As well as, there have been the many years of the Soviet experiment, which demoralised Lithuanian society. I see a historic alternative to essentially recuperate as a society. … If we dehumanise the newcomers to Lithuania, we danger dehumanising ourselves together with them. But when we help them, we additionally help our society.”
