Čudars should finally honestly and clearly say – will it be possible or not to vote with an ID card in the autumn elections? ...if not, will PMLP be able to prepare and provide the necessary number of passports in time? https://t.co/4uaJnsjpmo

@aiviskalnins The only one that can 'football' the stadium right now is LFF, by wavering between different possible locations.

🚗 And what is the NARROWEST car you have ever gotten into ⁉️ https://t.co/rPzYZYuYt0 Come to the Rīga Auto Show at Ķīpsala and see the world's narrowest car, and also visit the Climate and Energy Ministry's stand to learn all about the electric car support program 👍 https://t.co/osvjwHFPZi https://t.co/s3pf3aKxmx

Language is not just a means of communication. It is identity, belonging and the foundation of our country. Therefore, harassment of a language user because of language is not a trivial matter – it is a signal about the attitude towards the state language as a whole. Respect for the state language begins in everyday life. 🇱🇻 https://t.co/zZa5dkX002

Late last night @IZM_gov_lv received news that the Ministry of Economics has decided to jointly bid with Ukraine for the U-20 World Cup in football group and that this should be supported. That's of course absurd that someone came up with this and we did not coordinate it + we demand an explanation about this https://t.co/DWAnx8IqiH

@KasparsSmits Also in the previous program, mileage was important and many fulfilled the support conditions earlier than the 5-year term.

@KasparsSmits If the mileage is reached sooner, the contract terms are fulfilled. It is important to reach the mileage no later than within 5 years.

Banning Russian soldiers from visiting the Schengen area for life is a logical and rational proposal also because, from experience, we know — they can become 'little green men' at any moment!

It won't happen. They asked. All of VARAM's and its agencies' failures were blamed on CVK, which the law did not even allow to interfere in the work of the now “famous” agency. The law was later changed—now for the election period, some part of it legally comes under CVK's authority.

The Saeima advances in the first reading amendments that will allow the disclosure of companies that continue exports and imports with aggressor states. But – absolute chaos in the coalition leadership. Those same ones who for years said that 'the law doesn't allow it' suddenly, before the elections, submit low-quality amendments. https://t.co/8Jd5ZXnYNl
