Šimėnas Cabinet
Šimėnas Cabinet was the 2nd cabinet of Lithuania since the declaration of independence in 1990. It consisted of the Prime Minister and 17 government ministers. Albertas Šimėnas was appointed as the Prime Minister by the Supreme Council of Lithuania on 10 January 1991, following the dismissal of the previous cabinet. Only three days later, the January events took place in Vilnius, threatening the fledgling government. During the events, Šimėnas failed to appear at a government meeting after being called for and could not be located, prompting the Supreme Council to dismiss him on January 13 and appoint Gediminas Vagnorius in his place. It would later emerge that Šimėnas had left Vilnius and spent the night in the relative safety of Druskininkai Druskininkai (; pl, Druskieniki; be, Друскенiкi; yi, דרוזגעניק, translit=Druzgenik) is a spa town on the Nemunas River in southern Lithuania, close to the borders of Belarus and Poland.

Vaidotas Antanaitis
Vaidotas ( fl. 1362) was a son of Kęstutis, Grand Duke of Lithuania. In reliable historical sources he is mentioned only twice: as defender of Kaunas Castle in 1362 and as ruler of Navahrudak. Due to very limited information, his life is subject to wide-ranging theories by historians. Historical mentions According to the chronicles of Wigand of Marburg, he was the commander of the garrison of the newly built Kaunas Castle during the three-week siege in April 1362. After strong resistance the castle was taken over and then destroyed. Vaidotas with 36 men tried to break through, but was taken prisoner. The defeat was one of the largest and important military victories of the Teutonic Knights in the 14th century against Lithuania. In a 1401 document his brother Grand Duke Vytautas wrote that some years before Vaidotas and his brother Tautvilas Kęstutaitis were given to rule Navahrudak equally, but it is unclear when that occurred. Historians proposed 1365 as the most likely date. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
