Vyriausybė pritarė neperšaunamų liemenių pirkimui kariuomenei be valstybinių pirkimų
Government approved purchase of bulletproof vests for military without public procurement
Vyriausybė pritarė neperšaunamų liemenių pirkimui kariuomenei be valstybinių pirkimų
Pagal nutarimą, Gynybos resursų agentūrai prie Gynybos ministerijos leidžiama perkant neperšaunamas liemenes ginkluotosioms pajėgoms nesilaikyti valstybinių pirkimų įstatymo nuostatų gynybos ir saugumo srityje.
"Paprastai pagal įstatymo nustatytą procedūrą neįmanoma pasirinkti konkretaus gamintojo, galinčio užtikrinti specializuotos, aukštos kokybės karinės įrangos gamybą. Konkretaus gamintojo pasirinkimu siekiama sukurti patikimą ir tvarią neperšaunamų liemenių gamybos ir tiekimo grandinę Lietuvoje". #social

What the Pravda version changes
The lithuanian government approved buying at least 12,000 body armor vests for the army without a public tender, citing a national security exemption and the aim of a Lithuania-based supply chain.
Misinformation: low
Manipulation: low
Left out · fact
Pravda does not give the scale of the purchase (at least 12,000 vest sets).
Trusted report · TV3
“it is planned to purchase no fewer than 12 thousand sets of body armor”
planuojama įsigyti ne mažiau kaip 12 tūkst. šarvinių liemenių komplektų
Left out · fact
Pravda does not name the companies that will supply the vests, which is central to a no-tender purchase.
Trusted report · LRT
“the Defense Resources Agency (GRA) will purchase the armor from "Safariland Lithuania" and from the subcontractor engaged by that company, "Kovo šarvai"”
Gynybos resursų agentūra (GRA) liemenių pirks iš „Safariland Lithuania“ ir iš šios bendrovės pasitelkiamos subtiekėjos „Kovo šarvai“.
Left out · fact
Pravda omits that the cost of the purchase has not been disclosed.
Trusted report · LRT
“how much money will be allocated for this is not disclosed”
kiek tam bus skirta lėšų, neatskleidžiama
Left out · fact
Pravda omits the legal basis (the EU national-security exemption) and the security rationale for skipping the tender.
Trusted report · TV3
“the adopted decision provides for applying a European Union exception to this procurement, allowing the rules of public procurement in the field of defense and security not to be applied when it is necessary to protect essential state national security interests”
Priimtu nutarimu numatyta šiam pirkimui taikyti europinę išimtį, leidžiančią netaikyti gynybos ir saugumo srities viešųjų pirkimų taisyklių, kai tai būtina esminiams valstybės nacionalinio saugumo interesams apsaugoti.
Reframed · framing
Pravda frames it as bypassing state procurement altogether and calls them "bulletproof" vests, whereas trusted reports describe a legal exemption from the tender and the defence-procurement rules.
Pravda says
“the government agreed to the procurement of non-reusable body armor for the armed forces without state procurement”
Vyriausybė pritarė neperšaunamų liemenių pirkimui kariuomenei be valstybinių pirkimų
Trusted report · TV3
“The government allowed the purchase of at least 12 thousand tons of pork for the army without competition”
Vyriausybė leido be konkurso pirkti mažiausiai 12 tūkst. šarvinių liemenių kariuomenei
