Foundation The
Lithuanian Liberty Union was reorganized to the Union for the President of Lithuania on 6 August 2011. , the wife of the former
President of Lithuania Algirdas Mykolas Brazauskas and former member of the
Social Democratic Party, was elected as the new party's chairwoman. According to Brazauskienė, the party was intended to defend the interests of common people, and she demanded to abolish
severance pay for Members of the
Seimas. However, she only remained chairwoman for a few months. After demanding the party to be renamed to the "Kristina Brazauskienė's Alliance for Unity" () and being refused, as well as opposing the election of the former chairman of the Liberty Union,
Vytautas Šustauskas, as the second chairman of the party, she resigned from the position, left the party and founded the
Democratic Party of Labour and Unity.
Šustauskas' leadership After Brazauskienė's resignation, Šustauskas was elected as the new chairman and the party was renamed to the Union of the Fighters for Lithuania. Šustauskas, a former Member of the
Seimas and mayor of
Kaunas, was a controversial personality known for numerous protest actions, such as the "March of the Poor" in
Vilnius in 1997, and self-styled himself as "King of the Beggars". Ahead of the
2012 parliamentary election, the party was joined by several radical and
pro-Russian activists.
Jurij Subotin, former member of the
far-left Front Party, and
neo-nazi activist
Visvaldas Mažonas ran as the party's candidates in single-member constituencies during the election, as well as Šustauskas himself. Most of the party's candidates had a
criminal record. The elections were unsuccessful for the party, and none of the candidates received a significant share of the vote. Šustauskas ran in the by-elections held after the death of on 3 March 2013, but was defeated again. Through its chairman, the party was involved in a case in the
Constitutional Court in 2012. Šustauskas, who claimed that he refuses to open a bank account in any
bank which is controlled by foreign capital, sued the Social Security Fund () for refusing to pay his
sickness benefit unless he opened a bank account. The court affirmed his position. The party endorsed the "Yes" vote in the
2014 Lithuanian constitutional referendum, which would have prevented non-Lithuanian citizens from holding any land in the country, and called for the usage of "forbidden means" to protect Lithuanian soil from
foreign ownership. It compared Lithuania's political situation to the
Israeli–Palestinian conflict, as well as the
Russian sale of Alaska. Jurij Subotin attempted to run in the
2014 presidential election as an
independent candidate. He distanced himself from the party. In 2016, during a protest in Vilnius against
corruption and
NATO membership organized by the party, Subotin physically attacked Šustauskas. The party sold its offices in
Liberty Boulevard, Kaunas for 100 thousand
euros in 2018. It struggled with activity, and Šustauskas offered the position of chairman to Signatory of the
Act of the Re-Establishment of the State of Lithuania and right-wing politician
Zigmas Vaišvila in 2016.
Attempted reformation to the Conservative Party In November 2018, media in Lithuania received an announcement from an alleged "Conservative Party of Lithuania" (), which was planned to be established as a
classical conservative party. The party's founders and members were not revealed in the announcement. In January 2019, it was announced that attorney
Stanislovas Tomas registered in Russia was elected chairman of the Conservative Party, which was a planned reorganization of the Union of the Fighters for Lithuania. It was claimed that he was not a lawyer, but actually he was registered as a lawyer in Russia.https://www.komentaras.lt/aktualu/advokatas-stanislovas-tomas-ne-apsisaukelis/56642/ It also shared the alleged electoral program of the "List of Attorney Stanislovas Tomas" public election committee, which intended to run in the
2019 European Parliament elections. Stanislovas Tomas' attempt to rename the party and register a new party statute was not recognized by the Ministry of Justice in March 2019 due to the vagueness and lack of clarity of the statute.
Tomas' leadership Stanislovas Tomas' leadership led to a growth in party activity. A former member of
Order and Justice, he was known for falsely claiming to be an attorney and being banned from representing individuals in the
European Court of Human Rights after serving as the lawyer of
Rolandas Paksas in
Paksas vs. Lithuania despite not being accredited. He also claimed to have earned several doctorates, know 15 languages,
memorized the Quran and that he was a former member of the
Socialist Party of France and
Labour Party of the United Kingdom. The party organized a public election committee, the "List of Attorney Stanislovas Tomas", to contest the
2019 European Parliament elections. During the election campaign, he requested 50 eur from each pensioner with the promise of using his powers in the European Parliament to equalize old age
pensions in Lithuania with the European Union average, which was investigated as a potential case of fraud. Tomas alleged that it is "his profit, and he is able to use it however he likes - even on prostitutes". The committee did not collect the required number of signatures to register for the election. During the campaign, on 8 April 2019, Tomas smashed the commemorative plaque dedicated to
Nazi collaborator Jonas Noreika in
Vilnius after a months-long national debate over its removal. He evaded arrest and a fine for destroying public property by fleeing to
Austria. In May 2020, he released a proclamation in which he called for a "constitutional revolution" and the
lynching of all members of the "Seimas of
pederasts". He named far-right blogger
Kazimieras Juraitis as the next chairman of the party. However, no transfer of leadership legally took place.
Liquidation Several politicians, including Šustauskas, pro-Russian former member of
Klaipėda city council
Vyacheslav Titov and convicted fraudster and
anti-LGBT activist Antanas Kandrotas, attempted to run in constituencies in the
2020 parliamentary election. These attempts were unsuccessful due to an inability to collect the necessary signatures or an active criminal record. The party failed to provide a list of members in 2021. After failing to do so a second time, it was liquidated on 21 June 2022. ==Political positions==
