A Wildberries distribution hub in Novosemeikino, Samara region got hit today. The facility is 178,600 square meters and one of the company's biggest in the Volga region. A Russian flag with "zov" was painted right next to it. https://t.co/yPGBHfFsjw

Migration blindness is the most glaring, most absurd, unprecedented blindness and ignoring of causal relationships in human history. There is not a single civilized country where after the arrival of African/Indian migrants (legal or illegal) security has increased, crime has decreased, terrorist attacks have decreased, order has increased, culture has been enriched, or anything else good and positive has happened. There is no district, quarter, or property whose value has not dropped immediately after an influx of migrants. There is no place that has become cleaner or tidier. What more do you need? The left is completely feeble-minded, while also being blind and stupid.

📊 Political ratings do not guarantee victory. Just like in sports - winners are determined not by the start, but by the finish. Winners are not made by the first kilometer of a marathon, the first period of hockey, or the first round of boxing. Winners are made by the finish. It is precisely when fatigue is greatest, when pressure builds and emotions run high, that the one who keeps their cool, trusts their strategy, and avoids fatal mistakes wins. In politics, it is exactly the same. The last months of an election campaign are not a time for improvisation. It is a time for discipline, smart tactics, and maximum voter mobilization. It is precisely at the finish that elections are won or lost. There is very little left until the finish. Now it does not matter how loudly you have run so far. What matters is who crosses the finish line first and who will be ready to win at the decisive moment. What do you think about ratings? For whom are they falling, for whom rising? Are there any surprises?

These are disturbingly good news for Latvian taxpayers. Why must money be allocated to immigrants for some discos, while Latvians collect donations to cure their sick children? I wish you success in ceasing your operations!

About the latest ratings. The problem is about Kulbergs' potential allies in the new coalition. If they are again JV and Pro, then the cart won't move anywhere for the next 4 years either. It would be in Kulbergs' (or rather, the state's) interests if his allies were even more radical and bolder rule-changers than himself. Those who offer to fight not with consequences but with causes. Not to rummage around and make excuses with some Rail Baltica, NGOs and other state money grubbers, but to eliminate the possibility that such things can even exist and appear in nature. In MMN's party offering, it's not so important who is on the list, but its message and program, which is nothing else but - an instruction. An instruction on how Latvia can finally change its destiny for the better. We won't be jealous if others use this instruction too. We would only be glad. Kulbergs is already trying to lift some of our points from this instruction, but unsuccessfully. Firstly because his allies are stagnant and guardians of a rotten system. Only MMN can have the energy that can give courage to the whole undertaking, because we are fearless and have nothing to lose. For one reason - we are not interested in participating in politics in the sense it is commonly understood in Latvia. We are only interested in - changing the rules. For real. MMN

@gatismu Exactly, we respect them, BUT let's remember that they are enemies in our own backyard. That's how we should treat them.

@CerinsAivis Please respect the voter's will. If the united ones did everything right, why do the pro-Kremlin ones have 17%? The Cibiņi themselves, with their own squeezing, ruined the State!

Belarus uses immigrants as a weapon against Latvia. This year Latvia has stopped 9000+ attempts to enter our country. A small portion has managed to illegally enter our country. To complicate expulsion, they request asylum. One of the places where they stay while their asylum application is being reviewed is Liepna, in Alūksne municipality. Currently ~130 'refugees' are staying there - all men, not a single woman. Work is currently underway to expel them from Latvia in an accelerated procedure.

No one other than the fifth column and all haters of everything Latvian, who are only waiting for us to become a staging ground for orcs. Democracy allows and maintains such people. That same democracy will put them deep in opposition. Some in prison too, probably. https://t.co/UE5dpSGkv5

The latest party ratings show a horrifying picture. Stepaņenko with Brēmanis 17% - no comments. Šlesers is not far away. And just don't tell me that at such a horrifying scenario the biggest blame shouldn't be borne by V with its choices and complete arrogance over many years. But not only. Words are missing.

@ltvzinas Can't a society that wants to preserve its culture have a legitimate reason to be intolerant of threats?

If politicians allow themselves hostile, racist statements and spread that kind of content in society, it can have dangerous consequences. That is acknowledged by the experts we spoke to, noting that pre-election vote-fishing tricks, hooking the migration topic, can cause not only the proliferation of false stories. It also promotes an increase in aggressiveness in society. 🖥️ Watch more here: https://t.co/2AJRB1wqF4

In a democratic society, prevailing moods are usually considered an indicator of public attitude. It is the public's political choice. For example, enough immigrants! Enough of uneducated third-world riffraff for whom our rules and culture mean nothing. But experts on Panorama today do not say that the public might have turned against immigration. No, that is not a question in which the public might have a say. The public is simply becoming more intolerant. About the same as if you start disliking a party's political offering, then the fault lies in your intolerance, because the offering is correct, right? If you don't have the correct opinion, then either you are an enemy of the state or democracy, intolerant, racist, not critically thinking, or illiterate. The correct opinion or a diagnosis. Two options. Dear experts! Mr. Kaprāns. Or professor, I don't care, forgive me! There is no enduring culture that is not intolerant of threats to its own existence. And it doesn't matter what the skin color of the threatener is. But if the skin color is different, then there is a fairly high probability that the person has traveled far, and travels with his camel on the wrong side of the road not out of a small misunderstanding, but because he does not have such a category as the side of the road or fellow citizens. So since from Panorama it was impossible to tell whether Mr. Kaprāns realizes that or not, I explained—the more foreigners there are in Latvia, the more intolerant society will be. That is voting with your feet. When my neighbor once smokes or makes noise under the window, my 'intolerance' is many times less than if he does it regularly. Is that not so? I do not need a lecture teaching me not to be intolerant toward a neighbor who does not take me into account. I am and will be intolerant.

New ratings in short: ✅ Bye ZZS ✅ Jūlija says 'thanks' to NA. Here especially should be noted that NA stands still, but for every attack they make, SV gains a percentage point. That is truly harmful activity and state sabotage without thinking beyond October 3. And if it even bore fruit and NA had 20%. But they have 5.5%. ✅ Kulbergs somehow kicked out JV and Pro, hopefully they will be kicked out completely, especially with Ašeradens as PM candidate and Evucis in Vidzeme.

You apparently have not read your document? I have read it; it is an exact instruction on how banks are to assess farmers as bank clients and what information farmers are to be asked for, in order to decide whether they are 'sustainable' or not. If not, then the client is unfavourable and not good for the bank's 'green' portfolio. It literally says 'Unfavourable' and 'Favourable' client. The Bank of Latvia is not some news portal; the instructions published there are taken by the banking sector as a basis for assessing clients, because the Bank of Latvia will also assess the banks themselves that way. It directly affects clients. It is total nonsense; it is a harmful document that demands low productivity, pointless investments, and puts greenery above the interests of the state, people and farmers. https://t.co/zaKdf1QDpD

@AndrisKulbergs Not quite as it has been stated. A more detailed comment on the developed guidelines: https://t.co/7GK0tu1mKj

1/3 Biodiversity, climate change and other risks affect the economy, so banks assess sustainability risks. But it is not as it has been said. The guidelines do not determine how farmers should work, what and to what extent banks should lend. Application of these guidelines to banks is not mandatory.

Day No. 47 in the prime minister's chair – airBaltic strategic plan and the Bank of Latvia teaches farmers how to live ✈️ This was a day that almost entirely passed in the Cabinet of Ministers bunker – the secret meeting room. Nine hours of discussions, explanations, legal formulations and consultations. 🔹 airBaltic strategic plan At today's meeting we reviewed the strategic plan for airBaltic submitted by Transport Minister Rihards Kozlovskis, not the company's business plan. The business plan is a document for which the airBaltic board and council are responsible. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Transport as the shareholder and the government decide on the company's strategic direction – what we expect from airBaltic in the long term, what functions the company must perform, and what goals to achieve. At the meeting we also assessed airBaltic's financial situation and measures to improve it, so that the company can ensure stable service provision right now – during the hottest period of the aviation season. ✅We approved the representation of the State Treasury at the bond creditors' meeting. This mandate has not changed and corresponds to the mandate given by the Saeima. The business plan is reviewed by the airBaltic council and the Ministry of Transport. Currently the council has not yet approved it. The ministry only today submitted its comments so that the plan could be approved within the next week or two. Decisions of previous governments have led to a situation where complex negotiations with financiers and creditors now need to be conducted. The company's future will largely depend on the strategic plan promoted by Transport Minister Rihards Kozlovskis, as well as the ability to reach agreements with creditors and attract new capital. Capital attraction must be ensured. The current situation is largely a consequence of a decision made in 2024 – borrowing 380 million euros while not making fundamental changes in the company's operations. These changes should have been implemented two years ago, not continued to burn money in an inappropriately ambitious business expansion plan. The government decided to entrust Transport Minister Rihards Kozlovskis with starting implementation of the strategic plan he and Seabury had developed. 🔹 Baptism by fire for Kristaps Avots Due to the airBaltic meeting, I missed the NTSP – National Tripartite Cooperation Council – meeting with @darbadeveji and LBAS. Thanks to my parliamentary secretary Kristaps Avots, who saved me and conducted the meeting with honor. It was his true baptism by fire. 💪 Krists also conducted today: 🏅 Meeting of the National Sports Council; 🛡️ Cybersecurity action discussion. On cybersecurity matters, we continue to assess the security of the state's critical infrastructure and its compliance with requirements after the cyberattack on Latvian state forests. 🔹The Bank of Latvia starts teaching farmers how to keep livestock? 🐄 I met with the Agricultural Organizations Cooperation Council – LOSP. Frankly, I was speechless hearing the industry's account of the sustainability guidelines developed by @LatvijasBanka. Instead of the Bank of Latvia promoting processes that would allow new capital to enter the Latvian economy and help prevent the consequences of the so-called financial sector capital repair, it starts developing guidelines for farmers on how to properly keep livestock and organize economic activity. Seriously? The Bank of Latvia's council advisor and head of sustainability direction, Edvards Kušners, has apparently prepared an extensive study and report in which the banking sector is invited to take into account a number of conditions in financing decisions. The industry indicates that farmers whose farms do not meet these guidelines could face higher loan interest rates or even be denied financing. LOSP's examples: 🐄Keeping cattle in barns The bank must determine whether cattle are kept only in barns. If so, it could have negative consequences for obtaining financing. 💧Water consumption It is recommended to limit water withdrawal from water bodies above 10 m³ per day. What to do in hot summers? Leave cattle without water? 🦌Animal migration routes If construction or other economic activity interrupts animal migration routes and the entrepreneur has not created alternative solutions, the economic activity can be assessed as environmentally unfavorable – and this can affect credit availability. Two World Wildlife Fund experts have also been involved in preparing this work. But the agricultural industry claims that full consultations with its representatives have not been held. Seriously? Does the Bank of Latvia, which itself in its own research continuously points out that 🇱🇻 productivity must be raised, investment must be promoted, and economic growth strengthened, develop such guidelines? Has someone lost their way in the woods? 🌲🌲🌲 Mārtiņ @martinskazaks, how have such requirements ended up in the Bank of Latvia's guidelines for commercial banks? The industry has already received complaints that 🇱🇻 banks have started applying these criteria when assessing farmers' financing opportunities. This issue must be addressed immediately.
