Political posts and news mentioning Apvienotais saraksts from monitored Latvian public sources.
@lauris_sels well, there was another problem - purely English language and PR. Kučinskis can't even say that much in English
From@lauris_sels@JurgisLiepnieks This is nothing new. There was an old 'nothing special' case, in which, not to mention what was decided the previous day, one could not even explain what is happening in the country they lead in recent months. Moreover, the finance minister.

Re:Check verifies: what did parties fulfill in the social sphere from what was promised before the previous Saeima elections?
@JansonsJuris Kučinskis is the finance minister in this government, but yes, of course, previous governments seemed that it couldn't get worse. Turns out it can.
From@JansonsJuris@JurgisLiepnieks I thought that previous governments were a catastrophe. I was wrong. Kučinskis finance minister... etc.

From@AndrisKulbergs🇷🇺 NO TO RUSSIAN GRAIN – NO. I am pleased that the Saeima has broad support for economic restrictions on Russia. I see this as a clear mandate from the Saeima for the government to continue the work already begun. And we will continue. Decisively. Not with loud slogans, but with real actions. We will not look for excuses why something cannot be done. We will not hide behind endless approvals and waiting for others to decide in our place. Latvia itself has the tools, and they must be used. Our goal is clear – to maximally restrict the transit of Russian grain and prevent Latvia's infrastructure from helping the aggressor state's economy earn money and finance the war against 🇺🇦. Of course, one cannot help but notice the approaching elections. 😉 Suddenly the loudest fighters against Russian grain transit and seekers of 'bloody grain' are also among those who, for the past three years, while in power, could have acted themselves. Back then – excuses, hesitation, and arguments why not. Now – loud calls for the government to act. We in the government have already been acting since August. On Tuesday, a draft amendment prepared for the Cabinet of Ministers will be brought. The only difference – we will not talk, but act. 🇱🇻🤝🇺🇦

@Mikipele6 @Apvienotais_ We have been through everything and know what we are doing. Our responsible @Sat_Min is preparing the necessary decisions. On Tuesday we will look at @Brivibas36. Follow the events, less reference to ministers of another country. Thank you!
From@Mikipele6@AndrisKulbergs @Apvienotais_ Dear Mr. Kulberg! Has no one really explained to you that setting railway infrastructure tariffs is a matter of EU regulation and the government has no legal possibility to decide anything there? Today the Lithuanian Minister of Agriculture also told the media exactly that.

⚠️Here's how JV, AS, NA and ZZS deputies LISTEN when Hosams Abu Meri's resignation is demanded! All those who wait in lines and pay for expensive medicines - remember this sight on October 3! Don't forget them! https://t.co/2f72mTZxaE
Chaos in Kulbergs' government. It's unclear what was decided about exams - when do they take effect? First time I see such - the government decides, but doesn't understand what has been decided for thousands of students. https://t.co/idwQcUuapB
Let's not decide which unloved one we love less.

@DzelzsCilveks @LRZinas @LatvijasRadio @austsaule That was said by the same journalist who introduced E. Smiltēns's wife as Smiltene? Then it could be explained somehow.
From@DzelzsCilveksToday @LRZinas @LatvijasRadio supposedly compared Germany's AfD party with our @austsaule. In this way LR normalizes Kremlin parties in Europe. LR has become similar to Orbán's media. Yes, you didn't mishear, even a left-wing government can be anti-democratic.

@GPommers well, then there will be a downturn like never seen before. Save this tweet of mine.
From@GPommersWith great probability, AS will get even more than Vienotība in its golden days. Then we will see. https://t.co/Elw4bqnN6f

Uldis Augulis (ZZS) emphasizes that at the European level there are still no restrictions on transit, such bans would need to be coordinated. Therefore, it has been decided to carry out grain analyses, but if it is found that it was grown in the occupied territories of Ukraine, the respective carrier could face criminal liability.
From@KNL_LTV1“United List” supports imposing a 300% tariff on transit from Russia and Belarus, believing that it will work as a ban, as it will make transit unattractive. Meanwhile, “Progressives” and NA call for banning transit.

From@KNL_LTV1The Ministry of Health promised that no regional hospital would see its total funding reduced, and the essence of the document adopted by the government is completely different from how regional hospitals have perceived it, says Edgars Tavars.

@Apvienotais_ is 'stalling' so as not to take a position on Russia's bloody grains. @_KNL_
@JurgisLiepnieks It is worked out, but Kulbergs also acts in exactly the same direction, when he acts rather than talks!
From@JurgisLiepnieksThe next government will be able to use the formula for a long time - you know, it will take a long time to fix what was done during Kulbergs' government.
