@poznaks @jautaa_veel @Apvienotais_ @EdvardsSmiltens @Edgars_T From 24.07.26 you had a plan for coordination. Why are you slowing down if the situation is extraordinary.

@ArtursButans @zuravlevs @janisdombrava @AndrisKulbergs @VL_TBLNNK Would not be enough, because the violation has already been committed. It must be regulated from the "other end": - how many and what professions are needed, in which companies, for how long? - bring in only those, in a strict number for a limited time. If @darbadeveji cannot cooperate with @IeM_PMLP, we change the leadership to one capable of counting and controlling.

@zuravlevs @ArtursButans @janisdombrava @AndrisKulbergs @VL_TBLNNK We can. And for every crime committed by a Latvian, 1/10 of the punishment is given to the NA and ASL bigwigs.

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.

Bullshit, the prime minister probably hopes people will trust him and not look themselves - the document has passed 2! approval deadlines. 🙈 https://t.co/j7PcG8oMuc If that document is available to me, then it should have been equally available to the "surprised" ministers. Let them work! 😆 The approval portal says that the minister is ENTITLED to forward it to the Cabinet of Ministers meeting. That is - not only does the minister know how it should be done, but he is also entitled to forward the ministry's work result for consideration at the meeting. Then let the "plantation" representatives follow, speak up, publicly shine, rather than maybe peeking at their phones.

@AndrisKulbergs @guntarsv @VL_TBLNNK @janisdombrava I feel sorry to see that squabbling has begun between two parties that are supposed to form the backbone of the new coalition. Are you paving the way for cooperation with Šlesers?

Kulbergs manipulates - the issue is not illegal migration, but ensuring that various campers can no longer make invasion legal, selling residence permits to citizens of Russia's satellite states under the guise of 'work' and 'universities'. And are @Apvienotais_ @EdvardsSmiltens @Edgars_T @poznaks not against invasion, if you insist that only NA and Dombravs should fight against it?
