Question: Is this city really ready to be the Capital of European Culture for 2022?

City has gifted its center to neo-Nazi independence day marches for years. In 2012 it reburied with full honors Hitler’s 1941 puppet prime minister. It has multiple street names and a university lecture hall glorifying Holocaust collaborators.  

See Julius Norwilla’s eyewitness coverage of last year’s 32 June event in central Vilnius. . .

White armbanders who had started their “work” on 23 June 1941, surrounding Jewish women en route to be murdered in Kaunas, several weeks later under Nazi supervision. What is being celebrated?
