PART II: Case Examples from Central and Eastern Europe
Oil Terminal Construction in Butinge Lithuania
Saulius Piksrys
Background
In 1990, the Lithuanian government pro posed construction of an oil terminal in Klaipeda shortly after the Russian government announced an energy supply blockade. The government asserted that the terminal was needed to replace energy previously imported from Russia. The government maintained that the terminal was needed to help establish political and economic independence for Lithuania. In June 1993, after three years of deliberation, the government adopted a plan to build a 310,000 cubic meter capacity terminal 1.5 kilometers from the Baltic coast, close to the Latvian border and near Butinge.
Problems/Effects
Strategies Employed
The authorities' attempt to keep the project secret resulted in protest action among the inhabitants and the local municipality. NGOs began by collecting information from the media, politicians and local officials. Individuals and local NGOs protested against the oil terminal by using the well-known NIMBY slogan: "Not in my backyard." The Lithuanian Green Movement wanted to base its efforts on more scientific information and present alternative suggestions. Also, several protests were staged in front of the parliament building, discussions were arranged with state officials and complaints and declarations were presented to the authorities and responsible institutions. Since Lithuania joined HELCOM during this period and took part in the preparation of the "Baltic Sea Joint Comprehensive Action Program," the NGOs tried to use this situation. In cooperation with the international NGO, Coalition Clean Baltic, which had observer status in HELCOM, the Lithuanian Green Movement attempted to restrict the oil terminal construction according to international environmental regulations. Finally, the oil terminal construction was included into the "Baltic Sea Joint Comprehensive Program" as a new "hot spot" in the Baltic area. Some mitigating measures were foreseen as part of the Joint Comprehensive Program. When the Lithuanian government approached the World Bank for a loan, the Lithuanian Green Movement appealed to the Bank and tried to prevent the funding. One consequence of this development was the Bank's refusal to finance the project.

Robertson said Russian relations were high on the agenda for the alliance since the September 11 attacks on the United States brought the two former Cold War enemies closer than ever. "This new relationship is not based on sentiment, it is not based on a trade-off to do with enlargement. It has to do with a calculation of national interest of Russia and the 19 present members of the Atlantic alliance," he told a news conference. Robertson was in Vilnius to discuss Lithuania's NATO preparations and met President Valdas Adamkus. The prime ministers of Russia, Poland and Lithuania are to discuss the region's future in Kaliningrad early next month.

Among the best in Europe (says Swedish Executive) Mr. Lars Lindborg,
TELIA AB Business Area International, Vice President Telia of Sweden, along with Sonera of Finland, recently paid US$ 510 million for a 60% share in Lithuanian Telecom, the largest foreign investment in the Baltic States. The consortium also committed to invest an additional US$ 210 million to fully digitalise Lithuania’s telecommunications infrastructure. LDA recently asked Lars Lindborg, Telia Vice-President, about the progress of the Telecom investment. What factors influenced Telia’s decision to invest in Lithuania? Before the privatisation of Lithuanian Telecom we paid attention to four different things. First is the obvious factor of Lithuania’s geographical location. It has the Baltic Sea as a primary market area. Second, Lithuania’s macroeconomic prospects are very positive - among the best in Europe. Lithuania’s impressive economic record and strong prospects for the future were the driver for our interests in investing in Lithuania. We also paid close attention to the Government of Lithuania. We saw that the government is very stable and strong enough to give us confidence that Lithuania’s progress will continue in a stable way. Lastly, Lithuania’s strong commitment to join the European Union is important. For us that means we can be sure that the regulatory and business framework will develop in ways that are comfortable for us, to which we feel accustomed.

Lithuania is a small state by the Baltic Sea with an area of 65 thousand square kilometers. It is larger that Switzerland by a third and is 25% larger than Denmark. It is also larger than Holland and Belgium. Lithuania is Europe's geographic center. On March 11, 1990 Lithuania left the Soviet Union, reestablished its independence and freed itself from the Soviets who had illegally annexed Lithuania in 1940 and after World War II. On August 31, 1993 the last Russian soldier left Lithuanian territory. Up to that time 11 percent of Lithuania's territory had belonged to the Russian military which had established more than 400 military installations. Most of the abandoned military bases were not in compliance with existing environmental protection laws. The main pollutants consisted of oil products, components of rocket fuel, radioactive materials. U.S. environmental protection experts have visited and conducted preliminary tests at the abandoned military bases as have military personnel under the auspices of the "Mil-to-Mil" program. U.S. - European civil engineering corps representatives, members of the Canada's and Norway's National Defence Ministry and geological services, MITRE Corp. (American Center for Environment, Resources and Space), and NOTRA Environmental Services, Inc. (Ottawa, Canada) and the Environmental Protection Division of the German industrial firm IABG (Industrieanlagen-Betriebsyesellschaft, Ottobonn, Germany) offered assistance in testing.

Yosef Melamed, chairman of the Association of Lithuanian Jews, the worldwide umbrella organization representing Jews of Lithuanian origin. "Given Lithuania’s continued failure to prosecute any of the many Nazi collaborators who are currently living in that country, we are seeking to utilize the possibility which exists under Lithuanian law to bring those suspected of genocide to trial in absentia regardless of their state of health," said Dr. Zuroff, who has spearheaded the Wiesenthal Center’s efforts to bring Lithuanian Nazi war criminals to justice.

communautaire does not allow a visa-free regime for Russian citizens in Kaliningrad to travel through Lithuania while Russia remains on the EU visa list. Moscow claimed this violated the rights of Russian citizens to travel freely from one Russian territory to another. As a compromise, the European Commission proposed a special travel pass for Kaliningrad residents. Yet Russia also resisted this, claiming that these are just visas, albeit under another name. In November, Russia and the EU reached a compromise on Kaliningrad. Moscow acceded to the EU proposal, and, from July on, Russian citizens will need a "facilitated travel document," accompanied by a internal passport, to cross Lithuania. The document is equivalent to a multiple-entry yearlong visa, costs a minimal fee, and is easier to obtain than a regular visa. From 2004, Russians will need international passports to cross Lithuania. Between January and July, a temporary

Volume 11 Number 3 Summer 2002 Constitutional Watch
A country-by-country update on constitutional politics in Eastern Europe and the ex-USSR Lithuania - On June 20, parliament amended Art. 119 of the Constitution to allow foreign residents the right to vote in local elections. The second and final vote was backed by 105 deputies, with 14 voting against, and 4 abstaining. According to Art. 148 of the Constitution, two-thirds of parliament's 141 members are required to adopt a constitutional amendment in two separate votes no less than three months apart. The new law will likely be the basis for a plebiscite on EU membership. Opponents of EU accession, mostly the agriculture lobby, insist on a referendum, while the government opposes the idea. With public support for joining EU falling below 50 percent, a referendum, held even under the new law, is not a sure victory. As a concession to those who feared that the law would allow a future referendum on EU membership to pass too easily, one extra provision was included. For referenda regarding joining international organizations, if membership implies ceding sovereign rights, at least 30 percent of the total electorate must vote in favor. On June 13, the president vetoed amendments to the Law on Alcohol Control. According to the veto, the amendments, which placed a complete ban on any alcohol advertising, did not differentiate between beer and wine and hard liquor. The booming Lithuanian beer industry is one of the major sponsors of sports and culture events, so an advertising ban could entail losses of up to $2 million in sponsorship money this year alone. Opponents of the ban also argued that the advertising of soft alcohol should be permitted as a means encouraging its consumption, as opposed to the harder varieties; widespread alcoholism, especially among the rural population, is nurtured mostly by the consumption of vodka. On June 20, parliament accepted the veto and voted in Adamkus's amendment to allow the advertising of beer, wine, and cider. Advertising hard liquor is still prohibited.

Lithuanian government is divided between the legislative and executive branches, with an independent judiciary acting as interpreter of the constitution and of the branches' jurisdictions, as well as arbiter of conflicts between them. The constitution clearly acknowledges the danger of concentration of power in a single person or institution. The legislature has regained its old name, Seimas, which was used in the interwar years. The executive consists of a president and a prime minister with a cabinet, known as the Council of Ministers. The parliament consists of 141 members, seventy elected from party lists on the basis of proportional representation and seventy-one from single-member districts. To be seated in the Seimas on the basis of proportional representation, a party must receive at least 4 percent of the votes cast. An exception is made for ethnic minority groups, however, which do not need to pass the 4 percent threshold. The legislature is elected for four years. Candidates for the legislature must be at least twenty-five years old. Members of the Seimas may serve as prime minister or cabinet member, but they may not hold any other position in either central or local government or in private enterprises or organizations. The parliament must approve the prime minister, as well as his or her government and program. It also may force the government's resignation by rejecting twice in sequence its program or by expressing no confidence by a majority of legislators in secret ballot.

The Jewish community in Lithuania dates back 600 years, Vilnius having long been a capital of Jewish life and scholarship and an important center of Zionist activity. On the eve of World War II, the Jewish population numbered 250,000.  The over 200 Holocaust-era killing fields in the country attest to the murder of 95 percent of the prewar Jewish population by Nazis and Lithuanian collaborators. The Jewish population of Lithuania today numbers more than 4,000, concentrated in Vilnius, with smaller communities in Kaunas, Klaipeda, Siauliai, and other towns.  The visit coincided with Lithuania’s Holocaust Remembrance Day, September 23, which was designated as the Day of the Genocide of the Lithuanian Jews following independence in 1990. The day is commemorated annually with state-organized conferences and ceremonies. This year, the day marked the opening of the international conference “The Holocaust in Lithuania: Aspects of Modern History, Education and Justice.” The event commemorated the liquidation of the Vilna Ghetto on September 23, 1943, and subsequent annihilation of the Vilna Jewish community. The conference was organized by the International Commission for the Evaluation of the Crimes of the Nazi and Soviet Occupation Regimes in Lithuania, led by Chairman Emanuelis Zingeris, and Executive Director Ronaldas Racinskas.

Although only minor energy producers and consumers, the Baltic statesincluding Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuaniaoccupy a strategic location as transit centers for Russia's northern oil exports. Note: Information contained in this report is the best available as of March 2005. GENERAL BACKGROUND
Alone among the former Soviet republics, the Baltic Sea region states of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania were quick to adopt market economies and to implement democratic reforms. As a result, they have mostly avoided the economic and political crises that have beset other regions in transition from a centrally planned economy, including the Balkan region and southeastern Europe . Privatization in the Baltics is nearly complete, and in 2004, despite the slowdown in the global economy, the three countries posted an average 6.6% increase in their real gross domestic product (GDP). With a combined population of only 7.1 million people, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania have achieved greater presence in the international community by joining forces in a number of political and economic arenas. In 2004, after years of preparations, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania joined the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) as well as the
