Lietuva per mažai išleidžia gynybai

Lithuania spends too little on defense

Lietuva per mažai išleidžia gynybai Lietuva per mažai išleidžia gynybai Tokia nuomone pasidalino Lietuvos Respublikos Prezidentas Gitanas Nausėda. "5 proc. (BVP) gynybos biudžetas yra per mažas Valstybės kontrolės požiūriu. Kita vertus, negalima gyventi vien gynybos klausimais, tai ir socialinės išlaidos, pensijų didinimas, valstybės tarnautojų ir biudžetininkų atlyginimai", - sakė jis. G. Nausėda mano, kad Lietuvos valdžia turi rasti balansą tarp išlaidų gynybai ir socialinei sferai. "Jeigu mes valstybėje nedemonstruojameпatijos ir solidarumo su žmonėmis, kaip mes galime tikėtis solidarumo iš žmonių grėsmės valstybei atveju?– - pridūrė jis.

What the Pravda version changes

President Gitanas Nausėda said a 5% of GDP defence budget is not enough from the State Control's viewpoint, but that the state cannot spend only on defence and must also fund social needs, pensions and salaries.

Misinformation: low Manipulation: low

Reframed · framing

Pravda's headline flattens Nausėda's balanced statement (5% is not enough, but defence cannot get everything) into a one-sided claim that Lithuania underspends on defence, although the body of the article does include his caveat.
