The leader of "Latvia First" Ainar Šlesers stated to the LETA agency. Šlesers emphasized that measures to increase birth rates are included in the programs of both the "United List" and "Latvia First". Šlesers considers the best scenario for forming a coalition to be a joint government of the "United List" and "Latvia First", which would be supported by 58 deputies and have a stable majority in the Saeima. Šlesers stated that such a government would correspond to the mandate for change that voters gave to both political forces. The party is ready to offer Kulbergs its program to work together on the development of Latvia's economy, which, according to Šlesers, is also expected by the voters of the "United List". At the same time, Šlesers acknowledged that "Latvia First" has not yet received an invitation to negotiate the formation of a government with Kulbergs. Šlesers also reiterated his opposition to "New Unity" joining the government. #Латвия #Кулбергс #политика (translated)
