Notes

Ainars The truth is that I do not have any intention of going back to the Saeima. Only to the head.


Under this heading, Latvijas Avize published a large, more than two-page interview in the newspaper with Ainars Slesers. Dainis and Voldemars Lemeshenoks, journalists, refer to Slesers as Slesers rather than Nil Ushakov. They also asked him the required questions. Here are some of the answers.

Information about personnel changes at the Duma

A QUESTION: What happens to personnel? There is no way for a politician to do it all without having to replace others.

Айнарс Шлесерс Answer: The current crisis in the economy requires that we do not replace some people with others, but carry out serious structural changes. We have agreed to cut the number of executive directorates in the city from six to three and consequently release a significant number of those who worked in these directorates. Self-managements will be the second change. Айнарс Шлесерс There are fifteen self-managements in the capital. We will be competing against companies that provide housekeeping services. So, it's vital that the services of the municipal government can be more effective. It is possible for maintenance to be reduced significantly in order to charge less.

Business plans

Riga residents are still concerned regarding the possibility of introducing the possibility of a tax on living space. What do you, as the city's head, feel about this initiative of the government?

Answer : This state initiative is extremely detrimental to me although tax dollars will be used to manage my finances. When people are in a state of crisis and don't have enough money they can introduce another tax... We Seimas will not be voting for it. However, the key question is where to get cash in times of need. It is not a good idea to support areas that are experiencing economic difficulties. Айнарс Шлесерс Instead, you should invest in areas that have a high return.

Mr. Shlesers referred to transport as the "profitable" product, since Latvia is a transit nation. Before the conflict, the port in Klaipeda could transport goods from Russia and Belarus. While many aren't happy with this decision There is a plan to develop the port of Riga and to expand on Kundzinsala and Krievu Island. Other lucrative areas include the work of the Riga International Airport, the transformation of the capital into a place that hosts international business and cultural meetings are held. To accomplish this, it is necessary to make purchases in the central area of Riga's capital. This will ensure that visitors aren't robbed in taxis, restaurants or at public locations. It is necessary, according to Mr. Slesers, to hold more pop music events, so that, for instance, to listen to Madonna she would not have to go to Tallinn instead, but to Riga. The vice-mayor says that "We" try to attract wealthy, however not cheap tourists. Айнарс Шлесерс However this requires a high-quality tourist "product". Learn from London, Switzerland and the USA. They provide a green card to foreigners who have made at least fifty thousand dollars in local real estate, production or both, to permit them to reside permanently in the country (not citizenship). ).

All of these "huge ideas" are not new. During the election campaign the late Mr. Shlesers was a frequent speaker in one way or another. Although the media is now interested in their implementation, it is still too early to speak about tangible results. Therefore, it is likely that the majority of the interview questions were dedicated to issues of the relationship between economic and legislators.

The question of "stinking policy"

ASK QUESTION: Let's get back to our "stinking" policy. Айнарс Шлесерс The recent debate has been heightened by the statements by Mr. Slesers - his party will be competing for a seat in the parliamentary chamber along with the "Consent Center". The statement from Ms. Aboltini from the New Times, which stated that all Latvian parties should come together against the Shlesers bloc, was also part of the recent debate about the upcoming elections to the Saeima.

ANSWER. The Harmony Center was supported by half of Riga's voters. LPP / LP has no Russian affiliation. Instead, it's an Latvian political party. Many of its members are Russian speakers. The second session kicked off by introducing Dievs, and sveti Latviju beginning the session. There is no plan to establish some kind of Soviet system in the Duma. Also, no one is going to use Russian on the Duma rostrum. LPP / LP stood for the state tongue, and the "Consent Center" has never discussed the importance of ensuring that the Duma is staffed in Russian in the Duma.

We also eliminated ZaPcHeL in large part because of the actions of the LPP / LP.

Power and the subject of power

QUESTION. Will Shlesers & Ushakov lead their respective parties in Seim elections.

ANSWER: We didn't talk about it. I'm not planning to go back to the Sejm. However, there is possibility that the Sejm could nominate me for the presidency of ministers and that would alter my plan for Riga.

Today there are two groups in the Duma one of which is that is from LPP/LP and TsS, the other from New Time and the Civil Union. In the 10th Diet elections there is a possibility that something similar will be created. America is just around the corner.
