🇱🇻 I see that the public is anxious while following international news. I want to reassure - there is no reason for panic!! We take the security situation seriously. 🇵🇱 The Polish Prime Minister has published an intelligence risk assessment on possible Russian actions in the coming months. However, it is not a statement about a specific or imminent attack on Poland, Latvia, or any other NATO country. 📢 You know that I communicate openly, also about negative facts. But right now there is no reason for concern. 🤝 I am in constant contact with the services. This week I also met with EU leaders who attended the Arctic Summit. ✅ Currently there is no information indicating a particularly high level of threat. I can confirm that Russia is not ready for war and is not capable of a conventional attack. 🛡️ NATO support is stronger than ever. Our border guard and services are vigilant – a number of operations are underway on the border, military exercises are taking place, and German fighters will additionally patrol the airspace during elections. However, we must remain vigilant. Our society is well informed about threats and knows our eastern neighbor well. Of course, the Russian election context intensifies the volume of disinformation and propaganda. 🔍 I am carefully following the situation, meeting with the services, and speaking with both Ukrainian and EU leaders. The responsible services constantly monitor the situation and exchange information with our allies. I can reassure you! If a real threat arises, I will inform you immediately.

Who said that the Dzirksteles survey methodology is worse than SKDS? Anyway, I congratulate ASL on a convincing victory in the elections and JKP on second place. https://t.co/ydWYyIP9ox

Amusing table. @austsaule was a public organization until the party's founding. Apparently the fact that we didn't ask for state money makes us an 'unsocial' and deeply unfriendly force for 'civil society'.

AS stands on the path of backwardness. Minister Tavars revokes the decisions of previous minister Čudars, which recognized the restrictions imposed by Bauska and Preiļi on wind energy as unlawful. Municipalities that receive grants from the state (read: Riga and Pierīga) unreasonably restrict business, and the minister supports them. In this way, no businesses will soon be able to obtain operating permits https://t.co/Bu1VEtsgMz

@AinavaP No need to confuse sexuality with the definition of family.

In principle, this visual material also makes many people make a choice! I also have friends who are gay etc., but they also understand what such politics can cause in the long run. And for many, economics means nothing - they see this and that's enough! https://t.co/4l1zGdM9rZ

WE DON'T WANT MIGRANTS Watching how on TV24's circle of opinion coincidences the main importers of immigrants – Kulbergs, Rostovskis and Bite – are self-satisfied, while mocking Hermanis's refusal to discuss obviously unsupportable proposals, I was amazed at the constant display of engagement. One must be either (A) an astonishing fool, (B) a mercenary unscrupulous person, (C) an enemy of the Latvian people, to support any, controlled or uncontrolled, immigration from third-world countries after the rapes, bombings, filth, diseases and contraband that immigrants have shown in Western Europe. In the current demographic situation, this is a "to be or not to be" question. No numbers or other economic world data outweigh security. That must not be bargained over. Initially I hoped Kulbergs would be a true reformer, but it seems he is an effective continuator of the work started by Siliņa. Her male copy. Instead of creating a national economic tax model that promotes local employment and the opportunity to earn for both entrepreneurs and employees, he proposes to compensate unbearable burdens with imported Central Asians. With such a vision, we will soon become a colony of Uzbekistan, and Riga – Samarkand.

@biedrsnorajona @Apvienotais_ This is a comment about a possible hybrid threat during elections.

We really hope that the current situation is exactly that. But as soon as I opened LETA (Published: 18.09.2026 14:50), there it was: "Latvia's president warns of a very possible further escalation in Russia's aggression" · https://t.co/rhfE9t6XmB How/what to think now - how serious is everything (really)? I don't want to sow panic, but a quote from the film "Conspiracy Theory": "If the government tells you everything is perfectly fine, it means it's time to run!"

@Kiborgzzz @AndrisKulbergs We'll see in 2 weeks.

@poznaks @AndrisKulbergs How is the halt of Russian grain transit going? Kulberg's actions in this matter look more like preserving that grain transit rather than the opposite.... The immigration issue is also more rhetoric and putting spokes in Dombrava's wheels....

U.S. Army Soldiers recently competed in the Dark Knight competition, a five-day event testing military knowledge, tactical decision making and physical endurance, at Ādaži Military Base, #Latvia. Competitors were scored across written examinations, military knowledge and tactical decision making over the course of the week. @VCorps is the U.S. Army's only forward-deployed corps, serving as the senior tactical headquarters for Army forces in Eastern Europe to deter conflict and provide combat-ready forces alongside our #NATO Allies. V Corps is operationalizing and expanding the Eastern Flank Deterrence Initiative with Allies, rapidly integrating emerging technologies into training and tactical plans. 🇺🇸🇱🇻#USLatvia #StrongerTogether #WeAreNATO @USArmyEURAF 🎥 Sgt.
