On 6 June 2026, the Social Democratic Party announced the collapse of the government coalition with the Dawn of Nemunas (PPNA) over growing disagreements. On 23 June, Ruginienė and her entire cabinet resigned after the PPNA officially withdrew from the coalition. She and her cabinet continued to serve in an acting capacity until 14 July, when the Sinkevičius Cabinet was sworn in.
