Of course. I agree. I don't even claim that all this can be done within a year. I pay attention to political ideas. However, there are no conceptual differences between Kulbergs and the previous government, as long as no initiative to review the decisions most harmful to state security is seen even in the foreseeable future. The only difference is Andris's determination and human capacity.

One thing is what a person wants to do, another is what a person can actually do in the current circumstances with the current resources. I'm fine if I see things moving in the right direction. And historical examples show that reforms benefit countries more than revolutions.

Quality education must be accessible to every child – regardless of place of residence. We must evaluate not only the distance between schools, but also how the child gets to school. My task is to ensure that decisions are based on both real accessibility and clear quality criteria. https://t.co/5g74bj6hjW

I was truly pleased to host the delegations of the foreign affairs committees from Türkiye, Lithuania, and Latvia in Tallinn today. Our discussions covered a wide range of topics, from the changing world order to allied cooperation aimed at ensuring the success of the NATO Summit in Ankara. We look forward to meeting again in Ankara next year. 🇪🇪🇱🇻🇱🇹🇹🇷

@thejaniz Not at all. I am not talking about what Kulbergs has done or not done, but about the political offering. How is it radically different from the previous government?

@Krusts3 As I understand, if you were in power these 4 months, then ezpz you would do it, right? :D

The EBIT managers' discussion “100% electrified Latvia in 2050 – utopia or reality?” is an open question. We have potential to develop electricity use in heat supply, transport, and also industry. Electricity is local energy that reduces our dependence on imports https://t.co/ODhnm87ae5

The closing question of the discussion - whether liquidation of KEM is necessary, received a NO from all of us. From me, because energy is one of today's geopolitical security issues and also the driving force of the national economy. Thanks for the substantive discussion! EBIT.. https://t.co/Puqv3gWqe8

Latvia’s immigration policy must be shaped in line with the state’s security interests, to avoid the problems that several Western European countries have faced, the Minister of Education and Science Ilze Indriksone (NA) said on the programme #ŠodienasJautājums. 🔊 https://t.co/R2cKJ9TfWr https://t.co/IocCrx7dqb

Kulbergs hasn't even squeaked about the liquidation of the Climate Ministry, the shutting down of the SIF, halting the airBaltic subsidy, revising the Saeima election law, denouncing the Migration Pact, selling student visas, security checks of city mayors by security institutions, cancelling subsidies for electric car purchases, the ban on burning peat, etc. decisions initiated, supported and implemented by JV, PRO, ZZS. Why should he be considered a revolutionary? He now signs students' diplomas.

Latvian politics. Despair is rapidly turning into hysteria. “Dear people, listen! He is not the real revolutionary! I am, I am, dear people! He is a fake prime minister!” https://t.co/KxmmWtu74x

When the Ukrainians liberate Mariupol, you can go there and tell them what kind of “own nat.minority” the Russians who came from Russia during the occupation are. https://t.co/ARmFmYhxqR

⚡️ RINGOLDS BALODIS: Well, dear friends, we have finally reached the “highest point” in relations with our nat.minority – the Russians! 🏆 I watch this fight over the Russian theatre signs and think – well, at last we are solving real problems! When everything else in the country is in order, all that remains is to pick out signs. Indeed, how can one live in Riga when the facade of a Russian (!?) theatre has a sign in Cyrillic saying that it is a theatre… This situation reminds me of an old Czech joke about the resort town of Karlovy Vary. Once, it was full of Russian tourists – see the video! We are acting just as “anecdotally”. It seems that the bigger the theatre fuss over signs, the less one needs to think about what is actually happening on stage. But well, the main thing is to chase signs! 😉

📌First, let's tidy up our own house, and then we'll save the world! I have set three main work priorities for the Ministry of Climate and Energy until autumn: ✅ security of energy infrastructure, ✅ readiness for the next heating season, ✅ improving the business environment https://t.co/YlByVGXs2l

You should sometimes turn on your brain. Today a drone was shot down because concrete decisions were made and implemented: units and detection systems were deployed at the border, interceptor drones were tested and purchased, and NATO readiness to engage was achieved. Hopefully, the new ministers will not only give each other nails as gifts, but will also continue the work.

@AndrisSpruds Shut up, progressive incompetent! It was necessary to fire you from office so that Latvia could finally make a decision to start shooting down dangerous drones.

So that fuel does not become more expensive - the political parties forming the government agreed today at the Cooperation Council meeting that the reduced excise fuel tax rate should continue to be applied until the end of this year.
