Lithuanian Out Loud 0148 Int - Gyvenimas Puikus Kaune Life Is Excellent In Kaunas

Published: Jan. 7, 2009, 2:18 a.m.

Hi there, I’m Raminta and I’m Jack and welcome back to Lithuanian Out Loud where we offer the world the Lithuanian language.

According to a Los Angeles Times article of September 2005, a Russian SU-27 flying from St. Petersburg to Kaliningrad went off course, flew over Lithuania, the pilot ejected and the plane crashed into an empty Lithuanian field.  Everything about this story is bizarre.  Russian authorities initially claimed the plane was unarmed but in fact it had air-to-air missiles and a canon.  Why did the aircraft fly over 120 miles into Lithuania?  Why did the pilot turn off his radar beacon?  Why did he fly low to the ground under Lithuanian radar?  Nothing about the incident makes sense.  Soon after the crash Lithuanian Air Force Commander Colonel Jonas Marcinkus was fired from his post for some phone calls he made to Russian military officers.  Some analysts have suggested the aircraft was testing Lithuanian defenses for a hypothetical Russian war with Poland and Lithuania.

Laba diena, norėčiau užsisakyti maisto išsinešimui

Ko pageidausite?

Ar jūs turite valgiaraštį?

Žinoma, štai – paimkite. Gal norėtumėte ko nors išgerti?

Ne, tiesiog palauksiu savo užsakymo

Gerai, kai būsite pasiruošus užsakyti maistą leiskite man žinoti
