It was the inspiration for the image of Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump
engaged in a passionate embrace, see overleaf. The work of local artist
Mindaugas Bonanu, it went viral on social media after it was unveiled in

It was apparently too much for some in the Lithuanian capital of Vilnius,
and the mural alluding to the close ‘right-wing-bomb-them-all-think-set’
of the Russian president and the US presidential candidate, daubed on
the wall of the BBQ restaurant Keulė Rukė, was covered over with white
paint the other night.
Restaurant owner Dominykas Čečkauskas said that the censorship was
more than “simple vandalism” but “a terrorising attack on freedom of
speech in Lithuania”.
