Lithuania's centre-left party said on Monday it would start forming a new coalition after winning the election, as its leader, Vilija Blinkeviciute, has cast doubts on whether she would lead the government. Her Social Democratic Party came first with 52 seats in the 141-seat parliament. Blinkeviciute said her party would open coalition talks with Democratic Union "In the Name of Lithuania" and the Lithuanian Popular Peasants' Union. — AFP
