The leader of the Lithuanian party Nemunas Dawn, Remigijus Zemaitaitis, has been convicted for promoting hostility against Jews through false statements.

The Regional Court in Vilnius, Lithuania, has ruled that Remigijus Zemaitaitis, founder of the Nemunas Dawn party, promoted hostility towards the Jewish community through false statements regarding historical crimes committed by Jews. The court found that Zemaitaitis used degrading language and incited hatred against Jews, affecting human dignity. Prime Minister Inga Ruginiene stated that she has not yet reviewed the verdict, and the Social Democratic Party stated that it respects the court's decision, noting that it is not final.

Zemaitaitis resigned from parliament in April 2024 but was re-elected in October, his party joining the governing coalition with the social democrats. His presence in the government generated massive protests in Vilnius, with thousands of people taking to the streets in November 2024 and August 2025.
