LTThe Lithuanian parliament (Seimas) has proposed legislation allowing local government officials to stop individuals involved in 'spitting' (a term often used to describe anti-government protests or disruptive behavior) and issue fines. This proposal comes amid ongoing debates over public order and the role of local authorities in managing protests. The measure aims to empower municipal employees to enforce rules against such activities, which have been increasingly common in recent years. Critics argue that this could lead to increased police presence and potential misuse of authority, while supporters claim it is necessary to maintain public safety and order.

Why these scores (Factual 65 · Objective 65): Factuality is reasonable, reporting on a legislative proposal without clear bias. Objectivity is slightly lower due to potential framing that may imply approval of the measure without presenting opposing views.
