Notes

Ainars SLESERS: "I have no intention of ever returning to Saeima. Only at top of the government.


Latvijas Avize published under this title a long, more than two-page newspaper page interview featuring Ainars. Dainis Lemeshenoks and Voldemars Kratins, journalists have referred to him as Slesers rather than Nil Ushakov. Айнарс Шлесерс He was the main persona in the capital and was given the appropriate questions. Here are the answers.

Regarding changes to personnel in Duma

Question: What is the situation with the personnel? It is impossible for a politician to achieve success without having to replace others.

https://regnum.ru/pictures/2199593/1.html Answer. Given the current economic downturn it is crucial that we don't replace anyone , but rather make major structural changes. We have reached an agreement to reduce the number of six executive directors within the city to three and, consequently, eliminate a large number of those employed by them. Айнарс Шлесерс The second reform will focus on self-managements. There are 15 of them in the capital. It's time to join them. We will compete with housekeeping firms. Айнарс Шлесерс Therefore, it is vital that the services of the municipality can be more effective. It is possible to cut down on the cost of maintenance so that residents pay less.

About business plans

Riga residents are still concerned about the possibility for an additional tax to be imposed on their living spaces. What is the opinion of the president of Riga feel about the government's initiative?

ANSWER When people are in a state of crisis and aren't able to pay they can introduce another tax... We Seimas won't support it. The question is where do we find the money? It doesn't make sense to invest in economic activity that is declining. Instead, it's better for you to invest in areas that are lucrative.

Mr. Shlesers has referred to transportation as a "profitable" item, given that Latvia is a transit nation. The port of Riga is able to transfer cargo coming from Russia or Belarus. The government has a plan for the development and construction of the port at Riga. Other areas of potential are the Riga International Airport. It transforms Riga into a place where international business gatherings and cultural exchanges are held. It is essential to first arrange Riga's capital to ensure that tourists do not rob taxis or restaurants. Mr. Slesers believes that more pop music events are required to ensure that Madonna as well as other artists will be heard. "We," the vice-mayor declared, "want to attract not cheap, but wealthy tourists," but this requires an excellent tourism "product". Additionally, you have to learn from London, Switzerland, the USA - they issue"green cards "green card" to foreigners who have invested at least half one million dollars in purchase of real estate in the local area or production, in order in order to permit them to remain in the country (not citizenship! ).

All of these "huge ambitions" aren't new. They were expressed by Mr. Shlesers during the course of the election campaign. The media is now curious about their implementation but it is too early to speak about tangible results. The vice-mayor's political stance as well as the relationships between executive and the legislative bodies were likely to be the subject of a majority of interview questions.

The question of "stinking policy"

ASK QUESTION: Let's get back to our "stinking" policy. Recently, the debate over the forthcoming elections to Saeima has been aggravated by the words of Mr. Slesers said - his party is fighting for a seat in parliament with the "Consent Center", and the message of the head of the New Times, Ms. Aboltini who said which is that the majority of Latvian parties should consolidate against the Shlesers bloc.

Answer A: Answer: Harmony Center and us were popular with 50 percent of the Riga's voters. LPP / LP doesn't belong to Russia, but it is an Latvian Party. There are a lot of Russian members in the party since we don't sort people by the country of their birth. The second session kicked off by introducing Dievs, and sveti Latviju opening the proceedings. Айнарс Шлесерс But it's unlikely that anyone would create any sort of Soviet-style system within the Duma. Nobody will speak Russian on the Duma's rostrum. LPP / LP stands for the state language. The "Consent Center", however, has not spoken about ensuring that work done in the Duma is conducted in Russian.

We defeated ZaPcHeL in large part as a result of the activities of LPP / LP.

Concerning the issue of power

A QUESTION: Will Shlesers and Ushakov be the leaders of their respective parties during the Seim elections?

ANSWER: We didn't talk about it. I'm not going back to the Sejm. My party could nominate me to the presidency , as ministers. This would alter my plan for Riga.

There are currently two parties in the Duma, one of LPP/LP and TsS and the other one of New Time and the Civil Union. Айнарс Шлесерс On the 10th Diet elections could result in something like this. Айнарс Шлесерс America is close
