"It will definitely be necessary to evaluate the implementation schedules, which, not so much in the first year, but afterwards leave an ever-increasing impact. (..) It is likely that this can be covered, but it immediately closes those opportunities for coming to the budget and voting for the millions that are currently being requested in demands from all sectors additionally." The current Minister of Finance, Māris Kučinskis (AS), pointed out: "It will definitely be necessary to evaluate the implementation schedules, which, not so much in the first year, but afterwards leave an ever-increasing impact.

"This is a caricature that I did not fit into a year and a half ago, when they met in Alaska, and I fit even less after Trump did what he did in Venezuela and unleashed a war against Iran." Completely different is Gad Lerner's opinion, who contests the portrayal of Putin and Trump as "two pacifists who meet in Alaska and then call each other to make trade agreements on diesel" opposed to "a warmongering Europe." #Trump #Putin #Energia (translated)

Presumably, his own bitter experience prompted former president Valdis Zatlers to urge the need for a strong faction leader to warn in an interview with Latvijas Radio just a day after the election results were announced. #ApvienotaisSaraksts #SaeimasVēlēšanas #LatvijasZaļāPartija (translated)

"The prices of fossil fuels keep rising endlessly and the cost of living has increased significantly, it is necessary to mitigate the negative consequences for citizens and to tax energy companies." Speaking at the European Parliament in Strasbourg, Minister Thomas Byrne said that, given "the prices of fossil fuels keep rising endlessly and the cost of living has increased significantly, it is necessary to mitigate the negative consequences for citizens and to tax energy companies." #gasolio #accise #prezzienergia (translated)

"I believe that it would be very good to catch someone like that and then engage them in conversation. From all the external signs, it does not seem that these individuals who are damaging this border infrastructure are the ones who would come, I don't know, from Egypt. Rather, they are individuals associated with Belarus or the Russian side. There are assessments to be made that these accomplices or these individuals conducting these acts of sabotage are most likely in close cooperation with the special services of neighboring countries," emphasizes Interior Minister Jānis Dombrava (National Alliance), who will propose to clarify the law. #Robežsardze #Ieroči #LikumaGrozījumi (translated)

Marats Kasems wrote that Sergejs Muļivanovs, whom he described as a pro-Kremlin activist, had previously organized street actions in Riga and had gone to the Cabinet of Ministers with posters. Kasems claimed that Muļivanovs had participated in a conference at the Moscow Institute of CIS Countries, where, according to him, the future of the indigenous peoples of the Baltic States was discussed in the event of the region's occupation. According to Kasems, Muļivanovs has not returned to Latvia after moving to Russia and obtained Russian citizenship in 2024. He pointed out that Ruslans Pankratovs had been looking for Muļivanovs, but publicly available Russian court databases contained a record of a person with the same full name being detained on April 3 under article 159 of the Russian Criminal Code for fraud. Kasems added that in the case materials, the suspect was described as someone who had recently obtained citizenship and was officially unemployed in Russia, and claimed that fraud could carry a sentence of up to 10 years in prison. Kasems sarcastically asked whether Muļivanovs' supporters would act on the principle of "not leaving their own behind" and suggested that the detention could be an attempt to force him to sign a contract with the Russian Ministry of Defense and send him to war. He also noted that he had anticipated Allas Berezovska's reaction to the detention, but according to him, she had not written about this case. #vatņiki #krievija #nvsInstitūts #propaganda #muļivanovs #krievija #vatņiki #nvsInstitūts (translated)

ASV media reports that the attempt to hijack a flydubai plane, which was en route from Dubai to Tel Aviv, was likely the work of a lone wolf attack carried out by a pilot with radical beliefs who planned to crash the plane at Ben Gurion Airport. #flydubai #lidmašīnasNolaupīšana #terorisms (translated)

Raivis Zeltīts indicated that, with nearly complete compilation of the parliamentary election results, 1.3% of voters, or about 11,000 people, had voted for "Rising Sun for Latvia" (ASL). He acknowledged that this did not meet the party's goal, but considered the result respectable for a new party, especially given what he believed was a smaller advertising budget for the campaign and the public media's ban on participating in most of the television debates. Zeltīts claimed that the media simultaneously provided a platform for pro-Kremlin parties. Zeltīts thanked the party's voters, activists, and candidates, stating that ASL would assess the campaign, change tactics, and continue its work. He emphasized that the party's priority was to maintain its core values, describing the campaign as a political school for its members. Among the factors influencing the election results, Zeltīts mentioned calls not to vote for small parties and voters' disillusionment with politics. He attributed the low voter turnout entirely to the responsibility of "New Unity." In contrast, he viewed the public image of "United List" and Andris Kulbergs as successful, noting that the large campaign budget and 35% result had left other Latvian parties with less support. Zeltīts also claimed that since the rule of "New Unity," there had been no significant change in the political course and that a centrist-liberal, pro-immigration party was in power. #Vēlēšanas #Latvija #Politika (translated)

Lato Lapsa asked who howled in the marsh early in the morning on October 4, and mentioned that they were likely Raudsepi, Ozoliņi, Tjarves-Ločmeles, Smoļenskas-Braunas, and others. He spoke of them contemptuously, linking them to the Istanbul Convention. #daba #ekoloģija #flora (translated)

Giovanni Zibordi wrote that, in the last three months, two of his four most viewed posts, with 90,000 and 92,000 views, were about September 11.

The deputy of the Riga City Council, Mārtiņš Eņģelis ("Progressives"), probably lied about the reason for his resignation.

#Garlasco #news I finally managed to hear all the recordings released today. "The castle" is exactly that. I have always said that 2017 was a consequence of 2007. The links were clear, especially on one side. Barbaini advises the Poggi family to ask Tizzoni to intervene against Napoleon, and she always asks Venditti to archive Sempio in 2017. Tizzoni tells us about his connections with Barbaini in his book, where he boasts about having managed to have Alberto Stasi convicted. Over the years, Tizzoni shows a strange involvement and attachment to the case, taking attitudes more typical of one side than their legal representative. Tizzoni, a lawyer with very high connections in politics and the judiciary, just to name a few: La Russa, Ligresti, and Berlusconi, takes on the case of a "very important" bicycle accident involving Chiara Poggi’s grandmother, the only (I assume) interlocutor, given the lack of relations between the grandmother and the mother. Let's return to the present, there's lawyer Lovati. The one of dreams, of the hitman. The one who has strange connections even with certain "YouTubers" (Dr. Stevens/Sindoca). The lawyer who accepts cash, "under the table", capable of obtaining a still-secret consultancy, the Linarello, strangely released from the Milan prosecutor's office of our first protagonist, Barbaini. Lovati, advised by Tizzoni, "friends" since their internship days, decides to give the mandate to Garofano, "head" of the Ris in 2007 who, along with Marino, plays with a boy's life. Attributing a trace of blood on the pedals that never existed. A "mistake", unfortunately still cannot be classified as a crime that will forever change Alberto Stasi's life, trapped for the interests of others. The point is, were the Ris hunting for successes after the blunders in Perugia and Cogne, or is there a complicit direction of a corrupt system? #Garlasco #giustizia #notizie (translated)

The peaceful Russia in 2027 will further increase military spending while cutting school, pensions, and healthcare. While we are abundant with pseudo-intellectual politicians and "openly biased" journalists shouting against war-mongering Europe, solely responsible for the war that, according to them, Russia has suffered rather than declared, Moscow shows its willingness to dialogue by increasing military spending by an additional 27% year on year. This is reported by Reuters, which has seen a draft of the budget that will be presented to the Duma in the coming days. Defense spending is expected to rise to 17.1 trillion rubles (202 billion dollars) compared to the 13.5 trillion planned for 2026, an impressive figure in itself but even more chilling when considering the gap between projected and actual investments. This year, despite forecasts, the final defense budget could come close to 18 trillion, and the count may even be partial, as some expenses are classified and others are included in other chapters. In contrast, funding for social policies, which includes items such as pensions, payments to war veterans, and maternity allowances, will decrease by 7% in 2027. Education funding will decrease by 6% and healthcare by 6.8%, compared to the initial plan. Spending allocated to the "national economy" section, which includes road construction and other infrastructure projects as well as subsidies for agriculture and other sectors, will be reduced by 7.4%. Significant increases in taxes and public utility rates are also expected. The drastic worsening of the financial situation in recent years has forced the Kremlin to drain its financial reserves, increase the deficit, and raise public debt, which in 2027 will continue to grow to 21.7% of GDP - according to Moscow's optimistic forecasts - surpassing the 20% threshold considered "safe" for economic and financial stability. Debt poses a systemic danger given the crazy interest rates the Russian central bank has had to impose to curb runaway inflation. Indeed, 9.4% of the 2027 budget will be spent on debt service, rising to 10.6% by 2029. When someone tells us that peace is not being made because "Europe has not yet appointed its representative for negotiations" or that "Zelensky has banned talks by decree," instead of saying that Russia has so far rejected all ceasefire and truce proposals, that it spends on weapons, in purchasing power terms, as much as our entire continent, and that it already teaches young generations to hate us and how to fight us, we know they are mainly trying to hide from us that to the east there are those who see us and treat us as an enemy and have dedicated their entire economy to our destruction instead of the well-being of their people.

Un país que no cuida a quienes entregaron su vida y su juventud para defender la bandera es un país sin alma ni honor. Cuando vi el video de nuestro soldado Henry Camargo —un valiente compatriota que vistió el uniforme militar durante más de 20 años y que hoy libra una dura batalla contra una grave afección pulmonar—, impartí de inmediato la instrucción a nuestro cónsul en Nueva York de articular todo lo necesario para su vuelo humanitario de regreso a Colombia. Pude hablar personalmente con él y se lo dije mirándolo a los ojos: en la Patria Milagro nuestros héroes nunca estarán solos, porque tienen un Presidente y un Estado que los respalda y los defiende. Hermano Henry: te vamos a traer a Colombia para que recibas tu trasplante. Con la bendición de Dios, tu operación será un éxito y allí estaré para visitarte cuando hayas salido adelante. Gracias por más de dos décadas de servicio. Gracias por entregarlo todo por nuestra libertad y nuestra bandera. ¡Firme por la Patria! ¡Viva Cristo Rey! (A.D.L.E.) 🇨🇴🐅 #HéroesDeLaPatria #Colombia #HonorYRespeto
