From@Jauna_Vienotiba“What drone wall? Drones flew in, but no drone interceptor has been deployed. Although, as far as I know, drone interceptors were already ready and soldier training could have started. For industry, they were ready and tested,” says Defense Minister Raivis Melnis. https://t.co/p9mDE7mfHu

The main task of orphan courts is to protect the interests of children, not to perform functions that notaries can do professionally. By transferring notarial activities to notaries, orphan court specialists would have more time and opportunities to focus on complex family situations, promptly identify risks and help children who need this support the most. We need to clearly set a priority: the child must be at the center of orphan courts' attention! 👧🏼 Video author: LTV Rīta Panorāma (06.08.2026)
From@ArlietasForeign Minister @Braze_Baiba: A heartfelt meeting with Latvia's Honorary Consul in Sloviansk, Oleksandr Pavenko, whose consulate building was destroyed by Russia's attack. I thank Oleksandr and his family for their dedication and loyalty. Russia will not break Ukrainian resolve, nor will it diminish Latvia's support for Ukraine. 🇱🇻🇺🇦

Many people are annoyed that companies or individuals get registered at their property, and then they have to fight and prove that it happened without their permission. That shouldn't be the case! ❌ To prevent such situations, the Ministry of Justice is working on amendments to the law that would stipulate that a company's legal address can only be registered in another individual's property with the owner's consent. Our duty is to protect the rights to property and the inviolability of private life guaranteed by the Constitution! Video author: LTV Rīta Panorāma (06.08.2026)
From@AnsisPupolsEverything will be fine, Aivar! After the elections, Pro will be able to fight against the Latvian language together with Stepaņenko and Ainārs, restore Russian radio and TV, and again push hundreds of millions for NGO research. There will be no limits to your, Raudseps's and Nellija's happiness, because those nasty Nazis will no longer be in power. Start marking it now! #BezmaksasPadoms

👧🏼 The interests of every child must be properly protected, and the state must be able to provide support in time when it is most needed. Together with representatives of the Regional Development Center and the Association of Municipalities, we agree that the child rights protection system must be purposefully improved, more clearly defining the responsibility of institutions and prioritizing the child's interests. The main task of orphan's courts must be the protection of children's rights and interests, not the performance of duties that can be professionally provided by other institutions. Therefore, the possibility of transferring notarial functions performed by orphan's courts to notaries should be evaluated. This would allow orphan's court specialists to devote more time to complex family situations, promptly notice risks, and help children who need support the most. At the same time, any changes must ensure that legal services remain available throughout Latvia, including in the most remote regions, without creating additional costs or unnecessary obstacles. The system must serve the child and the family. That is the main principle of our future work.
A warm meeting with Oleksandr Pavenko, Latvia’s Honorary Consul in Sloviansk, where russia destroyed the consulate building. I thanked Oleksandr and his family for their dedication. russia will not break the resolve of Ukrainians, nor weaken Latvia’s support for Ukraine🇱🇻🇺🇦. https://t.co/GohdXXBjkF

We received an invitation to Gorod.lv's pre-election debate, whose main language is Russian... Of course, we declined. But it will be interesting to see which parties in 2026 will still choose to speak in the Russian state language during pre-election debates.

From@RaivisZeltitsIt is hard to hide what a person is truly passionate about. Even though Šlesers's party is called 'Latvia First', one cannot fail to notice the zeal that Mr. Šlesers shows when it comes to reducing the influence of Russia or Belarus in Latvia. There is no shortage of examples, but the opening of the Moscow House in Riga and its defense stand out especially vividly in my memory. Have you apologized for opening this nest of Russian spies in Latvia? For twenty years this place was the rotten heart of Russia in the center of Riga, until it was closed under pressure from 'Austošā Saule Latvijai' (Rising Sun for Latvia). Later, the VDD carried out searches and started a criminal process against the institution's managers for violating EU sanctions. I can promise that in the Saeima we will also weed out the remaining remnants of Kremlin influence from Latvia - whether Šlesers likes it or not.

From@MarisCeplis@RaivisZeltits @E_Stendzenieks VVF also yielded to the OSCE (read: Russia) demand to include actual Russian language usage in private companies in Latvia in the State Language Law. The consequences today are widespread discrimination against Latvians in the labor market. Economic value has de facto been assigned to Russian, not Latvian.

🗳️ Our duty is to ensure that even in emergency situations, every voter has the opportunity to exercise the right to vote guaranteed by the Constitution! That is why we at the Ministry of Justice developed and the Saeima adopted amendments that will allow extending voting time at polling stations on October 3 until 23:59 if voting is significantly disrupted in an orange warning situation. I invite every resident, especially those living in the border region, to take advantage of the opportunity to hand over their vote for safekeeping on the preceding days. ℹ️ From 28 September 2026 until election day, it will be possible to deposit your ballot at all polling stations in Latvia at the following times: 28.09. – 17:00–20:00 29.09. – 08:00–11:00 30.09. – 17:00–20:00 01.10. – 08:00–11:00 02.10. – 12:00–15:00 Video author: LTV Rīta Panorāma (06.08.2026)
