@kasparsskincs @janisdombrava @AndrisKulbergs Since when are accidents a minister-level issue? Dozens every day.

However, I will use the situation and raise this topic again. Where should the interior minister react and solve problems at the management level in the context of such events. But 3 weeks have passed and there is silence. Meanwhile, Interior Minister @janisdombrava: - “Indians are coming” @AndrisKulbergs was not mistaken https://t.co/g8FyB3Pfwd

Immigration from third countries MUST be cut off like with a knife! It is like gangrene that spreads rapidly.

@AtlasDynam1cs @Jauna_Vienotiba @Apvienotais_ @AndrisKulbergs I am not the only one who has deceived you all, I am no reed in the wind here 💪💪

I briefly forgot how treacherous Latvians are and how they can be bought for 'kopecks'. @Jauna_Vienotiba = @Apvienotais_, the same JV rot with the same stench. Huge disappointment @AndrisKulbergs - nothing more than Šķēle/Šlesers' pocket prime minister, who is danced around by the same old Mangaņa coalition under the leadership of @edgarsrinkevics. Andri, you are selling what you have no right to - 🇱🇻 the Latvian state, the future of Latvians, and our security. This will come back to you politically hard! I will definitely also lend my hand.

@marisrumba1957 @Krisjanis_K @AndrisKulbergs The government only adopts decisions that are agreed in part A of its meetings, and adopts those that are not agreed in part B. And don't think that immigration supporters will agree on this. :)

@Krisjanis_K @EdvardsRatnieks @AndrisKulbergs what is unclear? NA received 4.5% in the last poll. I wouldn't want to believe that NA is so stupid that it doesn't know that the government only adopts agreed decisions.

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.

If Kulberg's office manager has time in the middle of the day to write arguing comments under my post, then the country is being run by a charlatan. A bit scary.

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.

MATH PROBLEM Two people. First. A high state official. High salary, large social contributions. No children and never will be. Second. A mother. Five children. Raised, educated, taken to extracurricular activities. The mother is just as smart, just as talented, and just as hardworking as the high state official. However, she cannot find work in parallel, because she must devote more time to raising children to become decent members of society. Question. Which of them will have a larger pension? You know the answer. The mother's pension will be minimal, because there are no social contributions. Moreover, the high state official will have a large pension because social contributions were large. The paradox is also that this mother's 5 children, decent, talented, and hardworking people, will earn a pension not for their mother, but for this high state official, whose contribution to the reproduction of society has been nil! We live in a society where a CHILD IS LIKE A PUNISHMENT! In a society where a dissolute lifestyle is dressed up in laws and court rulings. That is why it is entirely logical that Latvia, and the entire Western civilization, is dying out. We patiently wait for death, or do we RADICALLY change the rules? WE CHANGE THE RULES @partijaMMN

Foreign Minister @Braze_Baiba: 💬 Continuous attacks for the 6th day in a row. Minister @andrii_sybiha is right: “There is no alternative but pressure on Moscow.” It is important to increase economic pressure on Moscow, strengthen Ukraine's air defense capabilities, energy resilience, and sanctions against Russia's ballistic missile ecosystem.

@kasparsskincs They have already finished their campaign. The messages have ended. Now they will connect to others. Yesterday Valainis on Rīta Panorāma was also well connected to such left-leaning values. Maybe he hopes for the opportunity to continue working with @Progresivie.

Thank you for standing with Ukraine and sharing this position, dear @Braze_Baiba. Russia must face consequences for every crime it commits. There can be no impunity for those responsible for this war and its atrocities. At the same time, we also need urgent decisions to reinforce Ukraine’s air defence and strengthen our ability to intercept Russian ballistic missiles. Our partners’ unity is more important than ever to maximize pressure on Moscow.

DAY No. 68 in the prime minister's chair — Dombrava's imitated MIGRANT struggle @VL_TBLNNK hysteria about immigration sometimes looks like a spoiled kindergartener. Here is everything you need to know about @janisdombrava's 'theater battle' with immigration. 🎭 Apparently Dombrava is not interested in a real result in restricting migration, but in loud and pointless shouting. It is a pity that their own voters are fooled in this way. Interior Minister Dombrava apparently still has not understood what it means to be a minister and how work happens in the Cabinet of Ministers. I would suggest his more experienced NA colleagues — @KasparsGerhards, @IIndriksone or Mūrniece — explain what it means to prepare and submit an informative report (IZ) to the government. ❓ How do Dombrava and NA even imagine pushing a FULLY UNSYNCHRONIZED issue to a government meeting? Just because they felt like it? 📸 The screenshot from the MK TAP portal shows everything as clear as day: ➡️ Dombrava's informative report was submitted on Monday, 31 August, at 12:59 — only about 1.5 hours before the coalition meeting; ➡️ the document is completely unsynchronized with 14 institutions — not with the Ministry of Justice, Finance, Economy, Foreign Affairs, Welfare, Environmental Protection and Regional Development, Health, the State Chancellery, @darbadeveji, @LTRK_uznemeji, etc. Simply coming in, throwing a document into the government and then announcing that 'everyone is against fighting immigration' is dull, cheap and populist voter fishing with no basis. 🤝 At the coalition meeting we all agreed that the document must be coordinated, and this Friday a special political meeting is being organized to agree on its content point by point. Apparently even that seems superfluous to Dombrava, if noise is more important than results. ⚠️ And the objections are not formal — they are very substantial. For example, Dombrava suddenly imagined suing TWO European Commission commissioners and proposing amendments to an EU directive. The Foreign Ministry has significant objections to that. The interior minister cannot simply bypass all Cabinet working procedures, throw a document unsynchronized with anyone into the government and demand an immediate decision. Many ministers had not even had time to familiarize themselves with the document today. 📌 Moreover, there is no talk of some 'stuck coordination'. There has not even been a normal coordination cycle! The document must first be prepared properly, go through coordination and be brought to a government decision. Only then can one say that someone is blocking it. Dombrava simply did not do his homework. The facts are simple: 1️⃣ A project can be submitted to the government agenda if it is submitted by Wednesday evening. This project was already submitted on Monday, 31 August, at 12:59, shortly before the coalition meeting. 2️⃣ After clarifying the project, it was not sent to ministries for a repeated opinion. 3️⃣ The argument about delay does not hold up — the report has had almost three months since the beginning of June to be prepared. 🎯 If we really want to restrict illegal migration, we need results, prepared decisions and professional work, not loud slogans and political theater.

It looks like after the latest ratings, for some, simply, in common parlance - it has gone to their head. The government declaration must be fulfilled by advancing, correcting the order of things, or communicating with one's ministers, not by writing long TikTok videos in which epithets already pull towards Siliņa. A pity.
