Finally. I know how much Poles struggled in Lithuania, getting their names Lithuanized, and not being able to write in their own language. Is it a straight forward process or did she only manage to do it because she is the justice minister.

Ah, yes, I can see how that would make all the difference. So you can use any alphabet now?
Meanwhile the opposition started moaning about ‘destroying Lithuanian language’, ‘minister being a xenophobe being against everything that is Lithuanian’ and ‘her making the law just for herself’.
These morrons however keep silent about that QWX ban being a Soviet remnant.
Its good to see how much the relations between the 2 countries improved over the last 10 years to finally allow this to happen. It means Lithuanians no longer perceive the Poles living there as a threat to their culture and on the other hand Lithuanian Poles do not feel unwelcome in the country they were born in.
