Freedom Defenders Day in Birštonas

about

There are things that time does not change. One of them is the same light that burned in people's eyes on the night of January 13, 1991. It remained in their gazes, in their experiences, and lives in us today - as a reminder that freedom begins with people.
35 years later, that light still finds its way into people's hearts. From generation to generation, it travels with us, becoming a part of our community and responsibility for our country. The courage of the defenders of freedom has become an inspiration - an inner flame that encourages us to create a free, democratic and progressive country.
Freedom lives as long as we protect it, cherish it, and pass it on to future generations.
