Andris Kulbergs (AS) wrote the day after the elections that the work of the Cabinet of Ministers continued, and thanked the voters for their trust in him and the UNITED LIST. He stated that the party had also won in the Bolderāja polling station in Riga. Kulbergs pointed out that President Edgars Rinkēvičs had invited all factions to a meeting, the UNITED LIST first, and congratulated it on its historic victory. He added that there was no space for 41 faction deputies in the Saeima and the Presidential Palace. He described the coalition meeting after the elections as the calmest he could recall, stating that the issues were dealt with swiftly. In his opinion, after the elections, coalition partners and journalists showed less interest in the everyday work of the Cabinet of Ministers. Speaking about a possible tax on Netflix and other streaming platforms, Kulbergs opposed its implementation, pointing out that it could hinder cooperation with the USA. He said that the USA currently ranks 15th in terms of Latvia's foreign trade, behind Russia, and mentioned discussions with American entrepreneurs, the Hollywood industry, and security and the deployment of US forces in Latvia. According to him, during the Latvian president's visit to the USA, the US ambassador had organized a meeting for the Latvian business delegation with about 300 high-level entrepreneurs, while HBO had already arrived in Latvia for talks. Kulbergs estimated that the streaming platform fee could generate about 600,000 euros but emphasized that those costs would likely be borne by consumers, with subscription prices increasing. He believed that the funding for the Latvian film industry could be found in other ways, including reviewing the SIF programs, and he criticized the Ministry of Culture for not finding a solution without a new tax in four months. #Latvija #vēlēšanas #politika (translated)

Currently, security risks are high, especially in the border area where border construction is taking place and significant defense issues are being addressed. Each municipality has a civil protection plan, and municipal deputies are part of this system. Therefore, it is essential to prevent situations where individuals with access to security-related information or who play a significant role in crisis management may fall under the influence of Russia or Belarus. The chairman of the Saeima Defense Committee responsible for the bill, Raimonds Bergmanis ("United List"), previously emphasized that municipal deputies play a crucial role in the civil protection system, and therefore, in the current security situation, it is necessary to mitigate possible risks. #Latvija #NacionālāDrošība #Saeima (translated)

Stanąłem dziś na starcie. Chyba tego potrzebowałem. Potem wsiadłem w metro i pojechałem do Mamy. Posiedzieliśmy we dwójkę, popłakaliśmy sobie dla ulgi a kilka razy pośmialiśmy się. Mama wie że uwielbiam pierogi… Nie wiem jak to się stało ale jestem mistrzem świata - swojego świata. Po wielu latach niebiegania asfaltów wjechała życiówka w maratonie. Moja własna bez żadnego przygotowania szybkościowego, bo ja same góry i lasy. 3:45h na 42,2km. Miły akcent, chociaż jeden. To był ostatni oficjalny akcent przed Łemkowyną 150km. Kto wie, może będzie siła, może się uda, dla mnie to wyzwanie życia. Powiem Wam, że ten gościu w koszulce na zdjęciu trafił mi się w najgorszym moim (biegowo) momencie. Jakże takie rzeczy dają siłę… #warszawa #maraton #biegacz
