VILNIUS - The Lithuanian parliament approved on Thursday the nomination of Economy and Innovation Minister Virginijus Sinkevicius for European commissioner.
The motion was passed in a vote of 90 to ten with six abstentions.
The nomination of the 28-year-old member of the ruling Lithuanian Farmers and Greens Union has already been approved by the government and President Gitanas Nauseda and is yet to be endorsed by the European Parliament.
