Speaker of the Seimas Viktorija Čmilytė-Nielsen also congratulated her on the occasion of Christian Easter.
"We celebrate the Resurrection of Christ for eternal life. It is a hopeful, joyful and meaningful holiday. Because to resurrect means to be reborn, to return to life, to live anew. Because being resurrected is the complete opposite of loss," reads the Seimas Speaker's greeting.
According to V. Čmilytė-Nielsen, this parallel is very suitable for nature, which, although not in a hurry this year, is already waking up and reviving, promising a bright and warm summer.
