Lithuanian Prime Minister Inga Ruginienė has resigned along with her cabinet, concluding a 10-month term at the helm of the government.

She is expected to return to the new government as minister of social affairs, in a cabinet that, according to local media, is expected to be led by Mindaugas Sinkevičius, who would be the third Social Democratic prime minister after the 2024 elections.

In her statement after the last cabinet meeting, Ruginienė said that "in politics nothing is permanent" and that every mandate is limited in time, adding that her government has made good use of its term in office.

Her term was marked by several crises, including balloon smuggling incidents, drone violations, a record increase in the defense budget, and dismissals in several ministries.

She also faced criticism for official trips accompanied by family members and for the management of information leaked from the Registry Center, issues that were cited as factors in the end of her mandate.

However, she described the resignations as part of a normal political process, emphasizing that the transfer of power to Sinkevičius was planned earlier.

President Gitanas Nausėda is expected to officially present Sinkevičius' candidacy to the Seimas parliament, which will then decide on the approval of the new government.

Ruginienė is expected to return to her post as minister of social affairs after the formation of the new cabinet.

Meanwhile, changes in the government are also being accompanied by a review of the governing coalition and a redistribution of ministries among the participating parties.
