For singer Adri – a public response to a Lithuanian hell of war

The young man recently received a summons to carry out compulsory initial military service, but is open – he does not want to study military or defend Lithuania with a weapon. This is contrary to his worldview.

« I love Lithuania, culture, traditions, people, nature, but in Lithuania itself is high in English.

According to the young performer, Lithuanianism dies without an enemy attack. « Philosophical questions come – what to defend? If traditions die, language dies, dialects die very severely, » he said.

What’s more, the nine -month service, according to Adri, would confuse his career plans.

Adrius said his decision to avoid military service had nothing to do with a flare or reluctance to leave the comfort zone.

« I have run out a marathon, I live in the woods without a toilet. In my personal and my acquaintances, there is no fear of running or getting up at 6am. It’s a matter of worldview – I just disagree with this art of killing, » the singer said.

The guest of the « Kiss. » Said that he has a strong contribution to his attitude towards the defense of his homeland with a weapon.

« How to trust the authorities that cut the forests? I live in the countryside and see what is going on. I lack love for the nation, » he said.

The young man emphasized that he was by no means aiming to go the other way – those who want to study warfare.

Answer to Adrian – from someone who walked where even wolves do not walk

The young performer’s opinion has been overwhelmed by a lot, especially when the war in Ukraine was in progress. Rimas Armaitis also responded to the Special Forces veteran, which also helps the Ukrainian army, also responded to the social network.

On February 24, 2022, after Russia attacked Ukraine, in early March, he came to help Ukrainians as an instructor and combat wise man. Rimo’s callic – Died.

Armaitis agreed that his comment « The answer to Adrius – from the man who walked where the wolves did not go » would be published on the LNK.lt portal.

Rimas Armaitis writes:

– I wasn’t going to talk about it. I thought – so much was said. But I can’t be silent anymore. Because when I see what’s going on, what and how it speaks – how the person standing on the front I have to say.

« Let Lithuania be defended by those who want? »

No.

Lithuania must be defended by those who understand – if we do not defend it, they simply will not. And then there will be nothing left: neither your children nor your language, your freedom to choose, nor your instagram, nor Tikeko, nor Netflix. Only silence. The silence of the earth is closed.

You say, « there’s nothing to defend »?

So maybe you just don’t know what Lithuania is? Maybe you are just some area where cheaper VAT, where your new iPhone Come on faster?

While you Skrolini And bamboo, someone throws everything and goes to the land. Not for yourself. For you. For your right to live, talk, not even understand what you defend. They go when you shit Mali.

Yes, children sing in English. And you know what? It’s not their fault. This is our mistake – because in thirty years we have learned them everything except to love our homeland. A generation without roots grew up – because nationality is « no longer fashionable » in the family, and the love of the homeland was replaced by « projects », « modules » and « tests » at school. Now they look and don’t understand – what to defend here?

But this is not the reason to lower your hands. This is a spit in the face and at the same time a chance to wake up. If the roots are disappearing – plant new ones. If you speak, talk louder. If your child does not know what Lithuania is – show. You. Not the ministry. Not the Presidency. You.

Lithuania is not a government. Not bureaucrats. Not in the line budget. Lithuania is you.

And if you say it is disappearing – maybe something is dying first?

Peace without will to defend it is not peace. It’s a dream. The illusion. To the first tank. To the first shot. To the first lost mothers.

The authorities come and go out. Lithuania remains. While someone is still standing. Even if one. Even if with a hole in the vest, but with the spine and hard eggs. And while others hide under the words, cynicism, « smart reflections » – Lithuania is still breathing. While someone else is determined to talk and go – we haven’t disappeared.

When someone tells me, « I am before killing, » I even shake inside. You know why? Because in my squadron, Konstantin Kalinauskas Regiment – almost all paramedics were pacifists.

When I asked them, « How do you endure it? Cries, moaning, dirt, urine, stools, blood … How do your heads do not explode? » They answered very simply: « We don’t shine. We don’t go where you go. But we do what we can. »

And you know what? They did not sit there with the poster « not war ». They collected bloody hoses there. They dragged the todded through the minefields. They cooked coffee for someone who lacked half a face. They stood under rocket without a weapon in hand. Here’s what a real pacifist is.

Not the one who « can’t kill », but the one who does what he can – even when scary, even when it stinks in urine, when the cries and blood are around. When he pulls a man alive and gets a fragrance to the shoulder. They are contouring, shaking hands, blinking eyes, but they stood. How many soldiers they saved … All several contour, some injured 1-3 times. Sometimes it seems – not quite adequate. These are the pacifists of our war brothers and sisters of our war.

And when a young man, a young man or bearded hipster says, « I am before the war, I’m not a proponent of violence, » I often see no principle there. I see cowardice wrapped in beautiful words about peace.

Peace without will to defend it is not peace. It’s a dream. The illusion. To the first tank. To the first shot. To the first lost mothers.

And then when the dream is over, it will be too late.
