What does it mean to be elected to the Saeima with a specific proposal.

JV firmly supports the Istanbul Convention on eliminating violence in the family. What won't they scare us with – gender reassignment, the destruction of values, social genders! Remember the already folklorized sayings of the convention's opponents – Smiltēns's “the little room was very tiny”, Līdaka's “simply because I want to”, or the infamous message from Kulbergs to Īvāns: “he deserves a slap in the face for this.” In the Saeima, LPV with its fellow travellers is again stirring things up. They are trying to set people against one another by amending the Constitution. JV does not yield to myths and will protect Latvia's belonging to the Western value space, democracy, and respect for human rights. Who stands to benefit from turning people against each other in Latvia? Don't vote for those who help blow LPV's Kremlin pipe!

Latvia 🇱🇻 has accumulated EUR 27.8 billion in foreign investment by the middle of this year, or ~EUR 15 thousand per inhabitant. Meanwhile, in neighboring countries: * Lithuania 🇱🇹 - already EUR 50 billion (EUR 17.3 thousand per inhabitant) * Estonia 🇪🇪 - EUR 36.2 billion (EUR 26.5 thousand per inhabitant). Latvia is lagging behind!

❓ Why are the anti-immigration proposals put forward by NA being stalled in the Saeima and the government?

Together with @EPP we have worked shoulder to shoulder. For list no. 9 in the Saeima elections. https://t.co/rBHUO2Lj0L

🇪🇺 A strong Latvia needs a strong and united Europe. The President of the European People's Party (EPP), Manfred Weber @ManfredWeber, stresses the importance of European unity for security, growth and support for Ukraine and expresses support for NEW UNITY in the upcoming elections. 💬 “New UNITY is a European party in Latvia. It has proven this over the past decades, and it will prove it in the future too.”

Election results in various Western countries show the exact opposite, contradicting what Iluta Lāce said about society's openness to diversity, says Normunds Bergs.

At the candidate debates organized by the Latvian Film Producers Association, current Culture Minister Nauris Puntulis (NA) and former Culture Minister Agnese Lāce (Progressive) were head and shoulders above the others because of their competence, so says Gints Grūbe.

My choice is a strong Latvia in a safe Europe. I want to live in a free, European, and law-based Latvia. I do not want our country to be governed by mercantile populists whose goal is to align with the East. I confidently support the New Unity Riga team led by @Braze_Baiba 🇱🇻🇪🇺 https://t.co/1HFuEKbvx6

Politicians from the parties currently in opposition are openly lying, thinking only about how to win voters' votes, says Alans Baguzins, head of the debate club 'Logus debate'.

This evening on TV24 a discussion with the Director General of the Employers' Confederation on restricting immigration. I am inconvenient for economic groups that have an interest in immigration.

Do you remember how the toppling of the Okupeklis was dragged out? How everyone there squirmed and dodged? How they pointed at one another and wished each other ill. Very accurate - a walking Okupeklis. https://t.co/IvZYb6ydD4

🟥 KULBERGS from the United List and INDRIKSONE from the National Alliance are again BETRAYING their voters right before the elections, both voted that there is NO need to withdraw from the Istanbul Convention! p.s. Hermanis from MMN thought for a very long time, and Valainis from ZZS has understood what the blue ZS means, no longer stepped on the rake.

@taisnibaskalps @VL_TBLNNK @Apvienotais_ Neither one nor the other is ready to repeal it. Voters must take that into account when making their choice. But there are 101 other questions that also influence the choice.
