Economic growth cannot and must not happen at the expense of the nation-state's well-being and national state identity or colonization! Rostovskis, who regularly communicates publicly in the language of the Russian Federation even during a genocidal war, apparently does not understand something. Let's tighten our belts a bit, but we will live without jihadists and "growth" with their help! Economic growth is not a goal of the state, but only a means to ensure the well-being of Latvian citizens! https://t.co/g02mct3Re5

Solvita Gulbe about overzealousness in public administration. Latvian public administration is strongly characterised by overzealousness. During the process of implementing directives, an excessive number of regulatory acts are created, and large resources are spent - as a result, the set goals are not achieved. https://t.co/aRMKO2BNmU

In Nepal, after devastating floods, thousands of people are still missing, and there is no new information about Latvian travelers yet. The Foreign Ministry has sent a representative of the Latvian Consular Department to the disaster-affected country, who will help coordinate the acquisition of information and cooperation with local authorities. 🖥️ https://t.co/BY4vKeOdju

Continuing like this, Kulbergs will in record short time achieve that after the elections his candidacy for prime minister will no longer be relevant, even if AS becomes the winner. Which political force will want to work with such a leader?

When you have fed a dragon for 17 years, don't be surprised that it once turns its head against you. The long-time sponsor of Unity now calls for common sense and justice for all. Wonderful. A state that stifles entrepreneurs with 'conflicts of interest' and oversight does not distinguish whether today you are a donor or dinner. You cannot simultaneously praise Unity's hand and wonder when it grabs you by the scruff. Let them enjoy. Finally one justice for all, comrade Berg.

⚖️ The court must serve justice, not bureaucracy. The government has supported the amendments prepared by the Ministry of Justice to make the administrative process faster, simpler and more accessible to people and businesses. What will it mean in practice? 📨 Less bureaucracy and unnecessary costs – institutions will no longer have to send every unfavourable administrative act by registered mail. 💻 Wider opportunities to participate in court hearings remotely – no need to waste time and money on travel. 💶 More responsible use of taxpayers' money – state-funded interpreters will be provided when the court deems it necessary. 🔒 Better privacy protection – documents will include only the personal data necessary for the specific process. 🏛️ Fairer access to court – businesses and organisations will also be able to request an exemption from court fees or security deposits in case of financial difficulties. ⏱️ Stricter action against deliberate prolongation of proceedings and interference with court work. We are reducing unnecessary formalities, saving people's and businesses' time and using taxpayers' money more responsibly. At the same time, we are strengthening the protection of personal data and human rights and giving the court more effective tools to ensure justice. The next step – consideration of the amendments in the Saeima.

@BrunenieceI which official feels bribed or forced by my service position to do something illegal?

@Elina_Treija You are not only a Rīga City Council deputy, but also an advisor to KEM minister Vitenbergs. So you don't talk to ministry officials and don't indicate what and how to do, e.g., in house insulation matters and EU fund financial absorption, to promote climate neutrality?

Maybe it is enough to hide behind bureaucratic procedure and clearly say that Kulbergs and NA have fundamentally different views on migration. NA believes that there are already too many migrants in Latvia. Kulbergs—that more are needed, because Latvians are leaving and someone is needed to warm Latvia’s economy in their place. Kulbergs’ full argument can be heard in the Saeima Defence Committee recording of 5 May this year https://t.co/0381jD1CU6 , where he justifies his “golden visa” proposals in the Immigration Law. It is not a crime to think that way. Many businessmen (Šlesers, Šķēle) think similarly: economic gain above all. But this approach is incompatible with NA’s strict immigration stance. Saying that Dombrava’s plan is bad because it lacks formal approvals is rather strange, especially since the document has already gone through two rounds of coordination with ministries since July. The problem is not formalities. The content is not liked. Kulbergs simply does not support the strict immigration restrictions that NA offers. And he looks for excuses to slow it down. That’s all.

Putin admitted that Russia is supplying Iran with “needed equipment” during its conflict with the US. “During this difficult period, we are trying to provide you with the necessary assistance. We have discussed this issue with you. We are supplying you with the necessary equipment.” Putin did not specify what exactly is included in the category of “needed equipment.” But it’s not hard to guess. “I am confident that we will win,” Pezeshkian said.

Today others also learned that Kulberg will never go against reducing bureaucracy and against restricting immigration (see Kulberg's video No. 68). Because the LDDK/LTRK (from where he entered politics) business and university lobby has already brought those migrants here. He may be a good blogger and, as a car salesman, has well polished the art of fooling people, but he is unfit for the job of prime minister. It is month 3 and not a single (!) thing has been done. Rinkevičs knew well that by choosing this empty talker, three hares would be shot at once: the old governance order preserved, a second term guaranteed for himself, and the gullible part of the Latvian people fed an illusion of grand reforms until 3 Oct.
