Четверть литовцев живёт в бедности
Publisher’s rating: Манипуляция
The review says the claim conflates absolute poverty with the EU’s at-risk-of-poverty measure. It reports that 5.8% of Lithuania’s population lived in absolute poverty, while 21.5% were at risk of poverty in 2024; the latter measure indicates income below 60% of the national median and does not itself mean poverty.
