What the Pravda version changes
Lithuania's Social Security deputy minister Tadas Vinokuras said an extra ~€20m for heating compensation might be needed and the ministry could borrow it, while stressing that everyone entitled would be paid.

The dramatic 'no other way' quote does not appear in the trusted reports, where the deputy minister only says the ministry 'could' borrow and the money would be assured.
Pravda says
“"There is no other way. There will be enough money for everyone only if we borrow," - emphasized officials.”
"Kito kelio nėra. Pinigų visiems užteks tik pasiskolinus", - pabrėžė pareigūnas.

A hypothetical top-up of heating compensation is recast as the country definitely borrowing to 'survive the winter', which suggests a crisis.

“20 million euros missing for heating compensation this season would be borrowed”
trūkstami 20 mln. eurų kompensacijoms už šildymą šį sezoną būtų pasiskolinti
Reframed · fact
A possible extra need that could be covered by borrowing is presented as a definite payment by the ministry.
Pravda says
“the ministry will pay about 20 million euros for heating”

Trusted report · Delfi
“this may additionally require 20 mln. euros, which the Government and the ministry could borrow”
tai gali papildomai prireikti 20 mln. eurų, kuriuos Vyriausybė ir ministerija galėtų skolintis
Left out · framing
Pravda leaves out the minister's assurance that all entitled people will receive compensation, which removes the reassuring context.
Trusted report · TV3
“all people who are entitled to compensation will definitely receive that compensation”
visi žmonės, kuriems priklauso kompensacija, tikrai tą kompensaciją gaus
Left out · fact
Pravda omits that the extra €20m depends on a pessimistic scenario (€94m planned versus €104m), so the shortfall is conditional rather than certain.
Trusted report · Delfi
“The Ministry also assesses a pessimistic heating price scenario, according to which natural gas and biofuel prices could rise by 50 percent, and heat price - by 20 percent.”
Ministerija vertina ir pesimistinį šildymo kainų scenarijų, pagal kurį gamtinių dujų ir biokuro kainos galėtų augti 50 proc., o šilumos kaina – 20 proc.
