Azuolas Bagdonas on the definition of genocide in Lithuania

In Lithuania the Soviet occupation is often referred to as "genocide" owing to the deportation and murder of countless citizens that took place during this period. Writing for Delfi news portal, Azuolas Bagdonas asks whether the term is justified or whether this designation should be reserved for the Holocaust: "Whether we like it or not, all attempts to concretise legal terms and find the right designation are always influenced by politics, even if this is not always intended. Laws that ban the use of certain designations are not to be criticised because, for instance, they foster anti-Semitism in some mystical way, but because they clash with other political values, including that of freedom of expression."
