On Friday Lithuanian President Dalia Grybauskaitė met with legal experts to discuss how to ensure transparent and effective work of the Prosecutor General's Office. Experts have noted that independence of the prosecutor general has been established in the Constitution. However, there have been repeated attempts to make the institution into a tool for politicians which is diminishing confidence in the state, the president believes.
