1) Kulbergs said that Lufthansa will not invest. So I assume there have been several talks. 2) If you sell the brand together with fixed assets, then it is practically a ready-made business without the old liabilities. Or it can be sold for a good price. 3) The state wants Riga to be the home airport and there to be many direct flights from Riga - that has been the position so far. Also in the context of a strategic investor, the talk is that the state should retain a 25%+1 share in order to be able to set such significant conditions.
From@Oslejs1) I have no idea what Lufthansa thinks, but if the example is SAS restructuring, then the Danish government and AirFrance-KLM invested in SAS only after all disputes over the bond conversion value, previous ownership, etc. had ended. 2) Everyone can earn more money if the airline flies. Selling off assets is not really a profitable business. 3) The Latvian state wants to privatize airBaltic, not become the main owner.

It is not that it is incomprehensible, but it is very well understandable.
From@SaulisVarpinsOn 4 September in Carnikava, 6 children and a teacher suffered from dog bites. Today is 7 September, and the parents of the injured children turn to me saying that no one from the police has contacted them, and when answering calls, they are told to wait. Physical injuries, especially hematomas, disappear quickly, so it is incomprehensible why @Valsts_policija is delaying the ordering of forensic medical examinations for the victims, so that all physical injuries are fully recorded right now, rather than when a forensic examination is ordered and the experts will largely have to rely only on medical documentation. As I understood, @janisdombrava and @AndrisKulbergs promised to pay special attention to the event in Carnikava...

@GraudinsMaris We're manipulating a bit, dear sir.. In J Jūrmalgeita, absolutely no member of the Green Party appeared...
From@GraudinsMarisOne thing is the Rīdzene talks, where Lemberga and Šlesers' votes ponder how to remake Latvian media into obedient oligarchs, but another thing is 'Jūrmalgeita', where Šlesers ponders how to bribe a Jūrmala politician to elect 'his' mayor. We sometimes forget that the Green Party included in Kulbergs' @Apvienotais_ list is one and the same party of the criminally convicted Gatis Truks, led by Edgars Tavars.

From@katrinailjinskaIt was a nice event, I think it's almost a "must" for journalists, especially in today's geopolitical circumstances. I saw @jureits, @normundsbergs, @UldisCerps, Minister R. Melnis and a whole range of politicians and entrepreneurs. I didn't see @lsmlv though, nor did I notice the Latgale editorial office, nor did I find any coverage in Panorāma and the daily news. So I guess it's not important to foster a sense of security in Latgale and tell the public that Latvian entrepreneurs can produce a lot on their own. Interesting! 👍

From@gatisliepinThe Finance Minister now says that the state budget is actually performing well and there is no reason to worry. Just a few months ago, politicians from the United List, while in opposition, were frightening with an apocalypse. Now that they have entered government, the rhetoric has changed. Now everything is fine, an urgent 800 million budget cut is not necessary. There is no longer any haste, it is September, but the finance minister and the prime minister have not even started preparing the budget in the government. Until now, the government always prepared a technical budget before elections, so that the next government could adjust it according to political reality after the elections. But now it looks like the new government will have to prepare the budget from scratch after the elections, and most likely we will live with the 2026 budget for some time in 2027 as well.
