@JurgisLiepnieks Well, actually Kulbergs only carelessly brought this matter up, but the lady in the flowery dress took it to total absurdity :) This NA pre-election stunt was definitely stupid.
@daigasbalss and ministers who 99% cannot explain what they have adopted, calculate the consequences, etc., that is an unprecedented catastrophe. And the name of this catastrophe is - Kulbergs' government.
@JurgisLiepnieks I think they 99% cannot explain what they have adopted. They definitely cannot calculate the consequences of their decisions..., this did not suddenly arise in Kulbergs' 4 months... Kulbergs simply finds it convenient to stir up and show it. BUT HE DID NOT CREATE IT - HE SHOWS WHAT IS HAPPENING.
Kulberg's government has directly created this specific chaos in the education system right now. If that isn't clearly visible ... well, then nothing... I have nothing to add.

The 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.
Edmunds Jurēvics (JV) emphasizes that the hospital network reform will not be rushed; it will be implemented over four years, also taking into account the state budget possibilities and providing additional funding for regional hospitals. Already next year, an additional 15 million euros will be needed for this.
Well, you may think that way if you know nothing about anything, but if you don't believe me, ask some teacher for their opinion, a school director, a teachers' organization, simply any competent person. And show me a case when ministers cannot explain what they adopted the previous day. That has never happened in Latvia.
Wait, wait, Mr. Liepnieks.. I understand you have some kind of alpha conflict with Mr. Kulbergs - but try to be at least somewhat fair - this chaos has been constant for a long time, Mr. Kulbergs is simply shamelessly demonstrating and showing it now. What has been happening for at least 20 years..
The 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.
Edmunds Jurēvics (JV) claims that yesterday the government supported introducing a science exam from the 2027/28 academic year, not from this academic year, but both Ilze Indriksone (NA) and Edgars Tavars (AS) oppose this.

For those who ask - why Kulbergs doesn't do this and doesn't do that. Each coalition party in government has four ministers and it would be strange if Unity and ZZS would support decisions aimed at correcting their mistakes. The Cabinet of Ministers' agenda is regulated by the rules of procedure and with such a balance of power as it is, that's how it is.
@BrencisA@JolantaKublins1 in their 100 days they did what they promised - Istanbul, partnerships, etc. Also the budget - I sharply criticized that. Kulbergs not only hasn't done anything. It's clear he doesn't even know how to start doing something. He floats with the current and just chatters.
This smells really bad. How did the lady leave RS with clean papers? It was clear they would all be thrown out, because the RS council wasn't doing its job. She left on her own, clean CV, and the next council was already waiting to loaf around for perks. And they tell us simpletons that 2x2=5🙃 well, we'll see… https://t.co/tpAPsIfW2D

@B03091315B@pilsonis42@AndrisKulbergs We need to go towards that, but with reason. Blaming @AndrisKulbergs for not being able to eliminate the feeding trough councils in 3 months is the same as asking him why you are not a dictator in Latvia. Only in that way would it be possible to do it in such a short time. Let's just be objective.
What is characteristic of this prime minister and this government - for NONE of the listed items is a date given when a decision will be made and when concrete actions will begin. NOTHING. https://t.co/Vd8D5r3F2C
Day No. 72 in the prime minister's chair (Monday) — 🇷🇺 NO to grain; STOP to migration
🌾 NO TO RUSSIAN GRAIN
The government is unanimous and determined — we will use all available tools to stop the flow of Russian grain through Latvia.
➖️ We will repeatedly increase tariffs/rail infrastructure fees for 🇷🇺 grain transport. They must be high enough to significantly cool the desire to bring Russian grain through Latvia. (our actions are limited by the need for coordination with the EU)
➖️ We are closely coordinating with 🇱🇹 Lithuania, 🇪🇪 Estonia and 🇺🇦 Ukraine to make it effective
➖️ Today I am in contact with the Baltic prime ministers to reach a unified position.
➖️ This is a joint government decision. Tomorrow we will move the matter to the Cabinet of Ministers.
➖️ We expect experts from 🇺🇦 Ukraine and 🇬🇧 the UK soon to jointly begin inspections of grain cargoes. Stolen grain from Ukraine will not pass through our ports!
Specific tasks for ministries:
🚛 Ministry of Transport — prepare the relevant government decision and assess the possibility of reducing domestic freight tariffs for Latvian farmers during harvest.
🌾 Ministry of Agriculture — ensure grain inspections.
🌍 Ministry of Foreign Affairs — reach a unified Baltic position on this matter.
👮 Ministry of the Interior — if stolen Ukrainian grain is found, services must act immediately - action plan.
⚓ For Kozlovskis and Augulis — ensure that Latvian ports give priority to accepting 🇱🇻 Latvian grain.
🏥 HOSPITAL NETWORK REFORM
We discussed this issue repeatedly in government.
➖️ The government has already made its decision. ZZS's demand to change it is not supportable.
➖️ We will discuss specific implementation details of the reform separately.
➖️ The matter was considered in a long and detailed meeting. A break was taken, an agreement was reached — at that time it was symbolically confirmed by the joint selfie of Valainis and Hosams.
➖️ The harsh State Audit Office report on the hospital network was available to all and served as one of the bases for the Cabinet's decision.
➖️ This reform is one of the priority works the health minister has done.
🎓 EDUCATION — CHANGES MUST BE THOUGHTFUL
If asked about education reforms — my position is clear: there will be no rushed changes.
➖️ This week we will consider the matter in the Cabinet of Ministers.
➖️ Rules must be clear for students, parents, and teachers alike.
➖️ Indriksone has prepared the work and done her homework, but we must reach a compromise that suits teachers, students, and schools.
➖️ I will definitely include this work in her TOP 3 list of accomplishments if all coalition partners agree
➖️ Children must be given the opportunity to correct grades. We can all make mistakes, and everyone should have a chance to correct their error.
🧪 Science exam — I support it. Latvia needs many more specialists and workers in these sectors. From the next school year we support its introduction.
➖️ Reforms are needed, but they cannot be introduced at the beginning of the school year just because elections are approaching.
➖️ The assessment system also needs improvement, but it must be done thoughtfully and in a timely manner.
🛑 MIGRATION
My position — much stricter order is needed on migration.
➖️ The report is planned to be considered by the government on 22 September.
➖️ The Ministry of the Interior must do its homework this week so the document can be properly considered by the government.
🙏 NEPAL DISASTER
At the end of the day — a prayer service at Riga Cathedral for the Latvian residents affected by the Nepal disaster.
Our thoughts are with their families and loved ones. 🇱🇻🙏
Recently, Andris Kulbergs (AS), who spent his first 100 days in the prime minister's office, evaluates the pace of his government's work as unprecedented in Latvia. https://t.co/sgytkLY7Vq
