Timeline

1906

His father was Kazimieras Brazauskas (1906–1997) and mother was Sofija Perezilevičiūtė-Brazauskienė (1904–1979).

1932

Algirdas Mykolas Brazauskas (, 22 September 1932 – 26 June 2010) was a Lithuanian politician who served as the fourth president of Lithuania from 1993 to 1998.

1952

He finished Kaišiadorys High School in 1952 and graduated from Kaunas Polytechnic Institute in 1956 with a degree in civil engineering.

1960

He later served as a Conscript sailor in the Soviet Navy, serving as a Fire controlman on board the Riga-class frigate Rosomacha until 1960.

1965

He took various positions in the government of Lithuanian SSR and Communist Party of Lithuania since 1965:

1967

In 1967, Brazauskas started working in the Governmental Planning Committee, as a Committee's head's assistant.

1974

In 1974, Brazauskas received PhD in economics.

1980

In the 1980s, he transformed himself from a Communist Party apparatchik to a moderate reformer.

He was seen as cautious by nature, and when confronted by the tide of nationalist feeling in the Soviet Union, Brazauskas initially believed that the USSR might be reconstituted as a looser federation of independent, but communist, states.

1988

In 1988, he became the first secretary of the Communist Party of Lithuania.

Under his leadership, the majority of the Communist Party of Lithuania supported the Lithuanian independence movement, broke away from the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and transformed itself into social-democratic Democratic Labour Party of Lithuania (now merged into the Lithuanian Social Democratic Party).

1989

Though he sought to avoid a breach with Moscow in 1989, as leader of Lithuania's Communist Party, he formally severed the party's links with Moscow.

This was rare in that no other local communist party organizations in the former Soviet Union dared to take this step.

Some historians and journalists have later suggested that this act was the earliest certain indication of the inevitability of the demise of the Soviet Union.

1990

In seeing the tide of an independent democracy, he joined the reformist cause observing in 1990 that "We are realists now, and we cannot be propagating any utopian ideas. It's no secret [that] the Communist Party has a dirty history."

Brazauskas was Chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet (head of state) from 15 January until 11 March 1990.

1992

After the 1992 parliamentary elections, the first to the Seimas since 1938, he became speaker of parliamentary and acting President of Lithuania on 25 November 1992.

1993

He then won the presidential election in a single round with 60 percent of the vote and was confirmed as president on 25 February 1993.

He immediately suspended his membership in the Democratic Labour Party; the Constitution does not allow the president to be a formal member of a political party during his tenure.

1998

He decided not to seek reelection, and handed the presidency to his successor, Valdas Adamkus, on 25 February 1998.

Brazauskas said he planned to retire from politics and wanted to be "an ordinary pensioner."

During the initial two years in retirement he wrote on a book, though it was incomplete.

He said he would continue writing it after his second stint in government.

He also said he would finish "household work" and that he likes physical work.

He added that "I have no estates, but the property I own needs to be put in good order."

He wanted to live "in a way that other people live."

He subsequently returned to politics saying he "always had something to do in life."

2001

He also served as the prime minister of Lithuania from 2001 to 2006.

Brazauskas was the first democratically elected president of post-Soviet Lithuania.

He also served as head of the Communist Party of Lithuania that broke with Moscow.

Brazauskas was born in Rokiškis, Lithuania.

This time he was Prime Minister from 3 July 2001, appointed by the parliament, until 1 June 2006, when his government resigned as President Valdas Adamkus expressed no confidence in two of the Ministers, formerly Labour Party colleagues of Brazauskas, over ethical principles.

2002

He divorced his first wife, Julia, with whom he had two daughters; he married Kristina Butrimienė in 2002.

2006

His government resigned on 31 May 2006 after the large Labour Party left the governing coalition.

Brazauskas decided not to remain in office as acting Prime Minister, and announced that he was finally retiring from politics.

He said "I tried to be a pensioner for several years, and I think I was successful. I hope for success this time, as well."

2007

He led the ruling Social Democratic Party of Lithuania for one more year, until 19 May 2007, when he passed the reins to Gediminas Kirkilas.

He served as the honorary chairman of the party, and remained an influential voice in party politics.

2018

Brazauskas traces his family back to the 18th century.

In the village of Mikailiškii (now Radviliškis District Municipality).
