Conclusions. The only thing I regret is that the election method proposed by MMN would make it possible to get a parliament with at least 30 Kulbergs and another 30 people far smarter than Kulberg, because the ban on combining offices would also be lifted. We represented those people who saw the cause of the problem rather than fighting the consequences. Thank them! Over the past six months, since MMN appeared, we have already made a considerable contribution to the common cause: we have radically changed Latvia's political agenda — changing the rules in state administration, or the general overhaul, became the main discourse in party rhetoric, and MMN's ideas became the main content of Kulberg's famous evening video selfies. Because, as he himself admitted on Domburs' show, AS had no program at all. We are not jealous, quite the opposite — we are glad that our ideas are being used as an instruction for action, and together with the rest of society we hope that Kulberg will succeed in implementing MMN's political program in practice as well. We would have done it better ourselves, but this option isn't bad either. Let's hope. It is also important that we have removed the JV/Pro monopoly from the race. Their era is over, and the state has at least been given hope of recovery. The immigration matters, however, make me worried. Because Kulberg supports bringing in low-skilled labor, and that will inevitably become an existential threat in the long term. And, finally, there is now a possibility that Rinkevičs definitely needs to be sent back to live with his mom. Because during a war, exposing the entire nation to security risks and putting Sprūds/Siliņa in charge just to get to live in the Castle was unforgivable. We got lucky. But it's not over yet. Thanks again to the MMN camp. At least we tried.

“The two big priorities remain unchanged – security and the economy. On security, in four months Melnis together with Prime Minister Kulbergs has done truly fantastic work, [..] while on the economic side, for now we have rather been engaged in firefighting and crisis management,” Edvards Smiltēns (AS) said in LTV’s discussion on the results of the 15th Saeima elections. #Vēlēšanas2026
From@ltvzinas"If two parties [AS and LPV] could agree on clear action and voters have given both parties a mandate to act, that would be fantastic," said Ainārs Šlesers (LPV), commenting on a possible coalition during an LTV discussion on the results of the 15th Saeima elections. #Vēlēšanas2026 https://t.co/PIKMZV5PK6

🇱🇻 In these photos my son grows. And in a sense, so does our Latvia. Valters and I have a tradition. At every election, one photo at the ballot box. Always together. In the first photos he is very small - still in my arms. Later he is already standing next to me. Today he is already 14. And this time, looking at our old photos, one thought struck me: these are the last Saeima elections in which Valters is still standing next to me. In the next ones he will make his choice himself. With his own conviction and his own hand. Perhaps that is how time is best measured. Not in years, but in how the child we once carried in our arms grows into a person who will have to take responsibility for our Latvian state. Today I also made my choice - for people and a team that I trust and am convinced can solve the accumulated problems in security, economy, finance, education, health and other matters - for list No. 7, the United List @Apvienotais_ and the prime minister - Andris Kulbergs! @AndrisKulbergs 🌼 But regardless of what your choice is, go and make it. Because election day is not only about politicians. It is about all of us Latvian patriots, our families and Latvia, which one day we will fully hand over to our children's hands. Today our hands are still together at the ballot box. Next time - everyone will already have their own voice. 🇱🇻

From@AndrisKulbergsDay No. 90 in the prime minister's chair (Thursday, Oct 1) – SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT TO ALL ILL-WISHERS – 80% of the government's work HAS BEEN DONE! A decision on RailBaltica has also been adopted; 📊 79% of the ministers' TOP3 priority tasks — DONE. Today we reviewed the results of the first four months of the government's work. Of the 61 priority major TOP3 tasks of ministers, 48 have been completed — 79%. Of the 106 planned smaller tasks, 88, or 83%, have been achieved. In the remaining month the government will work, we will complete the remaining 20%. Among what has been done since the last meeting this month: - 4 ministers have completed their tasks 100% o @VARAM_Latvija @Edgars_T main achievement = the election system has been developed and handed over – the mark for the work done will be given by voters on October 3. o KEM @JanisVitenbergs main task is the launch of the heat market overhaul – the Rīgas Siltums tariff rectification plan with 12 points and clear deadlines. o @Tieslietas @EdvardsSmiltens prepared the law on the status of 30,000 Ukrainians in Latvia, so they can work and stay after March 1, 2027. o @EM_gov_lv @valainis completed the simplified construction process (bureaucracy genuinely reduced); fast-track coordination for street vendors and businesses introduced. ✅7 ministers have almost completed their Top3, just 1 completed task short as of today o @Finmin @MarisKucinskis almost completed all tasks with Tuesday's Finance Ministry report and cost-control measures already by the end of 2026. o FinMin completed an important task – all procurements will be published from the first €, done ahead of the 2028 date set in law. o @Iekslietas @janisdombrava submitted a revised migration report and an immigration-fighting plan. ✅Remaining tasks – ministers still have a month left, until November 3: o 4 tasks require a political decision to be completed; o 2 tasks depend on the adoption of the new EU MFF multiannual budget; o 1 task - @veselibasmin @H_AbuMeri the unified appointment system will be completed within a month, once the cybersecurity tests are finished. Tasks completed in 4 months, in addition to the government declaration: ✅The problem of NGO money-wasting and opaque funding allocation has been brought to the fore. The Finance Ministry has been tasked with developing a clear funding allocation procedure, with an efficiency assessment and the application of an open competition. ✅Suspension of the TET/LMT non-commercial transaction, preparation of a new, transparent solution that meets state interests. ✅Cooperation with FRANCE achieved to strengthen Latvia's security. ✅At the Eastern flank prime ministers' level, support achieved for the €7 billion initiative from the new EU MFF budget, where the justification is to be sought in the impact from the aggressor state in the East and the war in Ukraine. ✅Construction of the 6th stage launched at the airport – the new terminal that had been delayed for years. ✅Cybersecurity – requirements for the security rules of critical infrastructure data centres adopted, work that had not been done for 2.5 years; in this government we did it in 1 month. o Cybersecurity monitoring equipment installed for 15 critical IT systems https://t.co/3UE7BCYahN for infrastructure protection/monitoring. ✅ICT moratorium – with the support of the European Public Prosecutor's Office, a cartel in state IT procurement has been halted. The imposed procurement moratorium stopped corruption, saved €21 million in the state budget and forced ICT projects worth €130 million to be reassessed, whose usefulness must be evaluated from zero. ✅A historic decision on the centralisation of ICT systems achieved; ✅Operation "VILKATIS" made it possible to neutralise a Russia-organised hybrid attack of illegal migration through Belarus, combining the border guard, the state police, the national armed forces and KVC. ✅OCTA regulation – I have personally been driving amendments in the Saeima for 3 years, so that a traffic accident victim is protected by an insurance guarantee fund if the guilty party flees the scene. In addition, it will be decided that an OCTA accident victim can turn to their own insurer instead of the guilty party as today. This will finally change the historic mistake, shifting the emphasis from the cheapest price to quality. The government's work is not finished. Until the end of the government's mandate, we will not slow down the pace. More on #RailBaltica in the next post 1/2
