Andris Kulbergs (AS) indicated that he defended Latvia's interests in Brussels during negotiations for the next EU budget for 2027–2034. He stated that the negotiations are complex because the European economy is stagnating, yet funds must be found for both security and growth. As one of the main issues, Kulbergs mentioned European competitiveness and energy prices. He emphasized that without a competitive economy, Europe cannot be strong in the long term. Kulbergs pointed out that, in his opinion, the economic consequences of the Russian war and geopolitical situation have particularly affected Latvia. He also highlighted Latvia's role as an Eastern flank country of the EU in protecting external borders and contributing to defense and security. Therefore, Latvia needs appropriate support in the next EU multiannual budget, Kulbergs said. #Latvija #ES #budžets (translated)

I don't know how ready society is to give up the benefits for children, for dependents. These are definitely the questions they will raise. As well as support for "Latvenergo".

These will be very tough discussions. #Budžets #Atvieglojumi #Ģimenes (translated)
