Could it be in 2014? Marches approved by authorities, in Kaunas in February and Vilnius in March, featured a banner glorifying the Nazi puppet prime minister of 1941 who signed papers sending the Jewish citizens of his city (Kaunas) to  a death camp and a ghetto. In 2012 he was reburied with full honors by the state.
