@Mikipele6 Forming an alliance requires a vote by the congresses of both parties. NA statutes stipulate that the conditions for nominating congress delegates must be sent a month before the congress. The “offer” from NA was in the second week of May, and candidate lists must be submitted from 20.06.
@Janis_Zalans Please justify your claim that it is impossible to create a joint list of two parties within several months. Which law restricts it with some deadlines that were impossible to fulfill?
An offer that is not feasible in practice is not an offer. It is impossible to create a lawful union in such a short time. On the other hand, the other variant was an 'offer' for ASL not to run in the elections. I fully agree with the part about not burning bridges. https://t.co/uFnJ1Lp8z2
The National Alliance has made an offer to the party 'Austošā saule Latvijai' to seek opportunities to jointly run in the elections, in order to avoid any votes of nationally conservative voters being lost, but has not found a response, #1pret1 says Raivis Dzintars.
@tv24_lv in the program #ziņutop we discussed what has (not) been done in the defense sector under A. Sprūds' leadership, especially anti-drone defense. We must adopt Ukraine's experience in anti-drone defense, and we must do it immediately, just as Lithuania and Estonia are already actively doing. #droni#Ukraina#NBS Full story 👉https://t.co/dS5tXEk25b

Today, the NBS warnings about possible threats covered large areas in Latgale and Vidzeme, affecting the daily lives of many residents, schools, and businesses. We need to find a better way to ensure people's safety in crisis situations while maintaining continuity of daily life as much as possible. I have tasked the NBS and the Crisis Management Center, in cooperation with the responsible sectors, to submit a report on the warnings issued on Tuesday, May 19, as well as specific proposals for improving the action algorithms for residents and services. Safety and clarity on crisis response must come first. Thank you to our Air Force soldiers, VUGD, Crisis Management Center specialists, and NATO allies for their work!

“Finally, Russian residents have felt what war is” – commented Ināra Mūrniece (@IMurniece), Saeima deputy (NA), head of the Foreign Affairs Committee, on the TV24 program #ziņutop. 👀 Watch the program recording: https://t.co/PfMOaxKL8c 🫵🏻 Share the publication and express your opinion in the comments section! #tv24_lv
After more than four years of the full-scale war that russia is waging against Ukraine, every month the picture of the war changes more and more; russia no longer dominates the battlefield.
Ukraine increasingly carries out very effective strikes against targets deep inside russian territory, including near the borders of Latvia, Estonia, and Finland.
Since russia's political elite is unable to explain to its society how this is possible, it has resorted to the traditional tactic of lies – to lie and try to convince everyone that someone else is to blame for their problems.
Latvia has not opened its airspace to Ukrainian drones to carry out strikes against russia, but Latvia continues to provide maximum support to the Ukrainian armed forces.
Latvia has not allowed the Ukrainian armed forces to carry out strikes against russia from our territory, but Latvia will continue to learn from the world's best experts in drone use for the defence of its own country.
Those who spread these russian lies must be dealt with with the utmost severity prescribed by law.

Slate is a problem. We support the disposal of slate for decent families, from other programs. With funding from the Latvian Environmental Protection Fund, 685 tons of slate have been collected. @IneseVaidere could create a support program for slate in Europe, rather than trying to redistribute funds intended for other purposes.
📍@IneseVaidere has been sitting in the EP too long and lost touch with 🇱🇻 reality. The claim that support for electric cars is a waste of money is a call to maintain dependence on imported oil products. EKII is not EU funds; it is emission quota money directly for supporting environmentally friendly technologies.

European Parliament deputy Ivars @Ijabs emphasizes in the conversation that this year also promises to be colorful both in national politics and on the global stage. However, in his view, even in a spring-like surge of energy, it is important not to lose vigilance and to focus on the “big picture” and common goals – both for each person in their own life twists and turns, and for society as a whole.

🇱🇻Labor market problems cannot be solved with a simple answer – more labor from abroad. It may seem quick and convenient, but in the long term it does not address the key question: how to solve the labor problem wisely, giving maximum benefit to Latvia?

Latvia, together with Romania, helped neutralize a drone in Estonia. On Tuesday, May 19, the drone neutralization operation in Estonia was led by the Latvian Air Force Control and Reporting Center. The downing was carried out by Romanian F-16 fighters of the NATO Baltic Air Policing mission. Thank you @gaisa_speki for the professional work! This operation demonstrates the allies' readiness to cooperate closely and respond quickly to security threats in our region. More: https://t.co/GxlDveD5aV

The 2025 annual report by @Tiesl_padome has been published. It summarises what has been achieved in the judicial system and outlines future work – a more efficient court organisation, a more balanced workload and stronger support for judges. The goal remains unchanged: an accessible, independent and high-quality court. https://t.co/wqXVbptIGV
NATO fighters have shot down a drone in Estonia. After the serious drone incidents, already in 2024 we achieved that the fighters involved in NATO's Baltic air policing are ready to shoot down drones as well.
Shooting down targets is not a national decision - it is done with NATO command approval.
When NATO fighters are in the air, ground-based air defense systems (guided missiles, interceptor drones, machine guns) cannot be used so as not to endanger pilots' lives.
The use of fighters is relatively costly. At the same time, it is currently the most operational and effective way to intercept drones.
Last week, the historically largest delegation of entrepreneurs went to Sweden—around 270 entrepreneurs met in Sweden. This is just one piece of news that has dissolved into the public sphere against the backdrop of political turbulence. https://t.co/cspanptTvW
