Andri, storyteller Munchausen lost credibility already a month after I took office as Minister of Transport. His desire was to continue demanding more and more state money. That was put to an end. The company's strategic goals and the shareholder's expectations letter were changed. After that, airBaltic attracted a highly qualified manager who, I assume, has also introduced you to his vision. I hope you are confident in the development direction he offers. Since the beginning of this year, the airBaltic team has been working on the company's further development plan, and the final business plan was submitted on May 31. I have not reviewed it because my last working day was May 28. However, in April and May I followed airBaltic's operational indicators every week, so I have a fairly clear idea of what this plan should look like. The main prerequisites for change at airBaltic during my term - within a year and three months - were created. I asked only one question about your and the finance minister's communication. At first it is said that the business plan is accurate and feasible, then - that there is no business plan, but at the same time the finance minister publicly mentions the narrowing of the company's operations as the main solution. This raises legitimate questions. The decisions will be difficult, and airBaltic will still have a lot of homework to do over the summer. But the state, as the largest shareholder, must act responsibly to achieve the best possible result for the company and taxpayers. Clear, consistent communication is an essential part of supporting the right and sustainable decisions.

Ati, I would rather stay quiet in your place... it was Briškens' and then your responsibility and your inability to act in time. Should I remind you who gave injections from citizens' tax money to AB without any business plan, without assessment?... AB came, asked, you gave - without blinking an eye. (At least credit to you Ati for the courage to deal with Munchausen, but what next?)

Grateful to receive the #MEPAwards 2026 in the Defence and Security category! Latvia punches above its weight on defence - and this award reflects that. I accept this on behalf of my team, who have worked hard to push Europe to take its own defence seriously. Europe will only be prosperous and secure if it becomes stronger!

With Andreas Schleicher (OECD) we discussed important issues – adult skills, student motivation and the prestige of the teaching profession. The conversation was valuable and encouraging. We agree – changes are possible if we don't wait for the system, but each of us takes responsibility for their part.

Polish NEXTA without beating around the bush calls LPV's Russian-speaking activities a Moscow hybrid operation.

🇱🇻 Has Russia's hybrid operation in Latvia begun? A mass rally in support of the Chekhov Theatre has been announced in Riga for next Tuesday. The protest was triggered by the authorities' decision to remove the Russian language from the theater's signs, posters, programs, official website, and social media pages. Russian-language performances, however, will continue. According to various estimates, 34% to 44% of Riga's residents are Russian-speaking. It's worth recalling that in June, the Kremlin expanded Vladimir Putin's powers, allowing him to authorize the use of Russian troops to 'protect' Russian citizens and compatriots abroad under Russian law. Just a coincidence?

📌 Today, on 1 July, the OECD thematic report “Life with Low Literacy and Numeracy” was presented, providing the most detailed insight to date into the level of basic skills of adults in Latvia. 👥 The event was attended by the Minister of Education and Science @IIndriksone, Director of the OECD Directorate for Education and Skills Andreas Schleicher, and education experts. Minister of Education and Science Ilze Indriksone emphasised that literacy and numeracy are the foundation without which it is impossible to fully acquire new knowledge, use technology, or adapt to change. She noted that these skills are also essential for Latvia's security, democratic resilience and economic development. Continuous skills development has become a daily necessity and a personal responsibility for everyone. 💬 The report highlights: 🔹 even a small increase in basic skills brings significant socio-economic benefits; 🔹 in adult education, it is particularly important to purposefully reach those who learn least often; 🔹 employer support is crucial for skills development. The platform STARS, created by the State Education Development Agency, was also highlighted as a good practice example in Latvia, providing unified access to adult education opportunities and helping residents improve their skills or obtain a new qualification. ✅ The OECD report data will serve as a basis for further improvement of adult education policy, helping to develop more targeted support solutions and strengthen human capital in Latvia. Event materials and the OECD thematic report are available here 👉 https://t.co/Vy8Jok0kKF 📸Photo: Gints Ivuškāns @edupetijumi | @VIAA_LV | @EPALE_LV

Can @AndrisKulbergs explain what the current plan for airBaltic is? On 15 June it was stated that airBaltic's business plan is concrete, precise and feasible. Today there is a claim that there is no business plan. Meanwhile, Finance Minister @MarisKucinskis notes that it is important for Latvia to maintain the national airline, but most likely its operations will have to be scaled back. The public needs clear and consistent communication. The goal cannot be expanding or shrinking the company per se. The goal must be a financially sustainable company. A decision has already been made that airBaltic must be self-sufficient and able to operate without regular state financial injections. Therefore, the business plan must provide for an efficient and profitable route network, only economically justified ACMI agreements, and only then the number of aircraft needed for this model. It is also important to sort out finances, which would require the involvement of private investors. Only then would there be a state capital injection to ensure 25% plus 1.

@KokinsIngus @DienaLv @Finmin @MarisKucinskis @airBaltic There is no real business plan in line with new market conditions. I expect it within a week from the AB board and Minister Kozlovskis of the Ministry of Transport.

@maris_mezals Will LPV also picket at Hesburger?

🟥 Has Raivis Dzintars violated NA's code of ethics by using the Russian language!? FORBID Raivis Dzintars from: • Studying Gestalt therapy in Russian; • Reading and using Gestalt lecture materials in Russian; • Speaking with Gestalt instructors and other colleagues in Russian; • Participating in Gestalt entertainment events whose subject matter includes Soviet symbolism and music by Russian performers. These prohibitions must take effect immediately and must be strictly observed. Any violation of the mentioned prohibitions will be considered a gross violation. P.S. This publication is directly intended for NA members and supporters who split Latvian society and foster national hatred. This is my answer to you — for the fact that for 30 years you have been humiliating and fighting against people like US! Also, I and Maija Armaneva are, in your opinion, so-called “grandchildren of occupiers,” just as you put it, and your struggle and hatred is directed precisely against me, us, our family members, and relatives!

@maris_mezals Yes, during Tsarist Russia (late 19th century) a Russian theatre was founded in Riga, Latvian was banned in schools, and books in Latvian were banned in Latgale, because Alexander II/III pursued a Russification policy. Didn't you know?

⚠️ Children, learn history, FACTS! Forward this to your NA friends, Puntulis and Dombrava, and everyone else who has a phobia of the Russian language. Maybe it will be a surprise to some, but the current Latvian National Theatre building was built in 1902 by August Reinberg's design as the Second Riga City Theatre. I am attaching historical postcards where the building is labeled 'Latvian-Russian Theatre' and 'Russian Theatre', because over the years both Latvian and Russian acting troupes performed there. And yes - as if by miracle, exactly in this building on 18 November 1918 the Republic of Latvia was proclaimed, and no one feared the aura of the Russian language, that performances were played in Russian there! What do you think about this sick obsession with the Russian-language inscription? Don't we have other problems?!

@liana_langa “Latvia first”? Rather “Russian world” first. Šlesers’ party considers the colonial @chehova_teatris more important than Latvia’s oncology patients and collapsed rails. Just don’t shout about your next picket for lack of money! #DeRussifyLatvia
