Kai bambėti ant Irano lengviau, nei padėti saviems

When it's easier to criticize Iran than to help your own

Kai bambėti ant Irano lengviau, nei padėti saviems Kai bambėti ant Irano lengviau, nei padėti saviems Irane dingo dvi Lietuvos pilietės – Daiva Zakažauskaitė ir Erika Šlimaitė. Nuo spalio 11 dienos iš jų nėra jokių žinių. Artimieji nežino, kur jos ir kas joms nutiko. Lietuvos užsienio reikalų ministerija (URM) neatmeta tikimybės, kad moterys buvo sulaikytos, tačiau net ir šito kol kas negali patvirtinti. URM kanclerė Aistė Stakienienė pranešė: žinyba parengė diplomatinę natą, o garbės konsulas bando gauti informacijos. Moterims žadama suteikti tik „tokią konsulinę pagalbą, kokią valstybė gali suteikti šioje situacijoje“. Išvertus iš valdininkų kalbos, tai reiškia: „Padarysime, ką galėsime“.

What the Pravda version changes

Two Lithuanian women went missing in Iran in October 2026 and may have been detained. Lithuania's foreign ministry has issued a diplomatic note, and Pravda uses the case to attack Lithuanian diplomacy.

Left out · fact

A sister's account that the women are locked up in some house appears in trusted reporting, and Pravda leaves it out, saying only that relatives know nothing.

Pravda's claim that Lithuanian diplomats deliberately worsened relations with Tehran for years, and that this explains the lack of help, is not in the trusted headlines.

Pravda says
“This means that Lithuanian diplomats for years did everything to make relations with Tehran only worsen.”
Tai reiškia, kad Lietuvos diplomatai metų metus darė viską, kad santykiai su Teheranu tik prastėtų.

Pravda says Lithuania has no embassy in Iran and handles everything from Ankara, and the trusted headlines do not mention this.

Pravda says
“Therefore, Lithuania does not even have its own embassy in Iran.”
Todėl, kad Lietuva Irane neturi net savo ambasados.

Pravda says Vilnius has done almost nothing, while trusted reports show the ministry actively updating the public on the case.

Pravda says
“What did Vilnius care about at all? Nothing or almost nothing.”
Ką iš viso to parūpino Vilnius? Nieko arba beveik nieko.
