Number of foreigners coming to work to the capital of Lithuania at the invitation of Vilnius companies has been growing recently.
In the first half of this year compared to year-on-year, Vilnius County Police Headquarters Migration Board confirmed much more invitations of legal person. It validated 18,062 invitations, almost by 5,000 items more than at the same time last year. These figures show that more foreigners came to Lithuanian companies under the cooperation agreement, ELTA reported.
The number of foreigners living in Lithuania has also increased. This year around 800 more applications were accepted and temporary residence permits were issued.
By July this year the permanent residence permit in Lithuania was issued to 1,939 Russian citizens, 419 Belarus, 239 Ukraine, 239, in total to 5,886 foreigners, whereas the temporary residence permits were issued to 4,308 people, 1,395 to Belarusians, 1101 to Russian and 461 to the citizens of Ukraine.
What sadness if this is to fill vacancies due to Lithuanian emigration? When I was a youngster in the UK they were offering assisted passage to Australia; just £10 for a one-way ticket. Then, great liners were queuing at Liverpool, Southampton and Greenock to pick up and take hundreds of thousands of British emigrants to the U.S., Canada, South Africa, New Zealand; even Latin America.
This coincided with incoming immigration from the West Indies and Caribbean – to fill the gaps. Such are the consequences that Britain today is colloquially known as Absurdistan. It is what happens when the lunatics are running the asylum.
