2015_01_22_281-seq68 translatedText "Colleagues, ladies and gentlemen, Mr Kirstein has already said that a great deal has been said here, so I should not repeat what has already been said, Mr But, Minister, I have one wish, as I have had the honour of listening to all of you. This debate, also in the approval of the previous one, when there is general talk about foreign affairs So question the question of cooperation between the Baltic States - the issue of Here was already under attack I'd like to say that it is " very good for us " between the Baltic States. As well as the political sense, and in terms of political sense, and in the content of this (No floor to DEP V Agekeins V Agekeins, " andconsensus! ") consistency, of course, yes, I think that it is crippling for us and I have ascertained and with my colleagues that, when we work for the European Parliamentary Assembly, then when we have our meetings together for all the Baltic States, when we have our meetings together for all the Baltic States ,we were initially talking about one thing, as it would be good that one example of me was blindingly remembered: our neighbours said that there was one thing that could never be done, but when the moment came when it was necessary to decideand to vote, unfortunately our neighbours voted contrary to what I was shocked that this was because this was the reason for this issue of cooperation between the Baltic States, which is something of a further region where we haveI think we need to find I realise that, in a certain way, we are in competition with each other, But at the moment, we must put aside all the differences and stand united and coherent on freedom of expression in the EU. I totally agree with what freedom of expression has said - that freedom of expression, freedom of the press is a huge benefit in Europe, and that it should in no way lose Bet I feel that freedom of expression is also the other side - enormous responsibility, and that is that of us. It is often the first half that we recall, but the other side we are unfortunately forgetting - that is to say responsibility for what I say and what I think is especially great is the responsibility for being told that they are being told itthe official representing one country or another in this case, I want to say that terrorism - that is just awful! And the people, of course, should be punished, and we must fight against terrorism But we should not have a religion which many people -there are no terrorists! - it is very close, as each of us has its own religion, which we recognise and what it is that we are not going to operate in a way that I am not talking about terrorists who operate this religionunder the guise, but stress to many people who are not terrorists, it is that we are also trying to increase them to a hostile, say, against one or another - that is, I think, criminally And thank God ,as I have read in the final period, as I have read in the international press, this half of the big states - that before we say a word, be very careful whether we offend somebody, say, another man I feel is a wise man, not a wise man. Whoever leads the conflict, but who is capable of anticipating conflict and eliminating conflicts a little more - a few more words - I would like to say something about the experts and the political gatherners, and so on and so on in the press before ten years agoI wrote on the subject and asked the political observers:' is it possible that there is a conflict in Europe in a classic way - with pistols, rifles, machine guns and something else?' said:' no! You could have, say, atom, a conflict of a kind, butwell that couldn't happen in Europe, say, in Europe,' I want to talk about the experts we need experts, we need the forecasters of Ziniet, the last very popular being the ekstrasensi Maybe we might attract some kind of politicks, that is, the estrasensus - that are capable ofsomehow to predict something forward (in the chamber of laughter) Who alone is a television programme token - there's extrasensed! He fixes the criminals he lays down, which there is Maybe to be attracted to these estidensus and then wethere has been a few moments earlier to know how to act on the Presidency for the Presidency to make it wonderful - let us go, respect, will work, I am sure: it will simply be ideal for the 99.9 per cent - it will simply be ideal For 99.9 per cent - it will simply be ideal for ideal! I would just like to say, say, that it is also a part of what has already been said here, from the Presidency, to tell us that we have been able to put something inside this Presidency to Latviawell, maybe it's not the best example, but I want to compare it with the esilk, but not in the fog but not with needles, so I would like to say thank you very much at the time of the Presidency. I say this to the Minister, as I did on previous occasions, when I have spoken, I thank you for your diplomatic corps, which, with little resources, is doing a huge amount of work for the attention (mayoral and faction of Members' applause)".
2015_01_22_281-seq66 translatedText "Dear Minister, Commissioner, honourable Members, honourable Members, honourable Members, I imagine that the foreign ministers of other Member States of the European Union can envy Latvia's foreign ministers, who now have a high level of competence in the Council of the European Union, as is the case in the Council of the European Union. The envy of fellow doctors who have been lucky to find in practice the rare cases of rare or complex cases, which both require a great professional professionalism, both provides a major opportunity for real professionalism in the development of this rare and difficult case of global politics, without a doubt, is the Ukrainian knot ,without Ukraine itself, almost all the interests of the world's leading geopolitical players - Russia, the largest of the Member States of the European Union and the European Union as whole clusters - as well as the interests of the United States Where Crimea would have been anecdotal, would say, instead of plateau ,without reason and context, then this case would be simpler though though Crimea is just one of the thread in this mezzlia, one of the truths of the other conflict's truths ends not when the war ends but when war endsthe representatives of the winning countries gather and agree on the new world order, accepts the rules of this order in the wake of the medieval wars reached in Versailles after the end of the First World War and Yalta at the end of the Second World War. At the end of the war, such a meeting has not been met and the rules are not accepted, perhaps because the transatlantic solidarity states felt that a different member of the Cold War was lost at all and that it should count on the mistaken nature of the situation, both of which was flawed ,because it is unlikely that Communist China may have been thrown out of the Cold War, as it was already clear that Russia, like other countries, remains in the interests of its geopolitical security interests in the aftermath of Cold War aggression in Iraq after the Cold War. The bombardment of Yugoslavia, the separation of Kosovo from Yugoslavia without the consent of the Belgrade central government, the violation of Georgia's territorial integrity And Crimea is the phase of this chain, since the Helsinki agreement this anniversary could be a great causeto do what was not done after the end of the Cold War, hold the Second Helsinki Peace Conference in order for this to happen in the capital, and to consult the 10 familiar principles of international policy, which would exclude the emergence of conflict in EuropeLatvia, as a bridge between the West and the East, as a bridge which does not belong to the bridge nor at the other, and is truly independent and sovereign, no one can live on the edge of the bridge ,not anyone else, because it is the bridge that brings together the two shores, so managing the bridge is, however, a great opportunity for Latvia in the Council of the European Union to influence events in Europe and become a bridge ,by not undermining our commitment to NATO in your arsenal, Mr RINKĒVIČS, there is now a golden bullet from you personally and Mr Pildegovic depends on what will be done in Latvia - it is wise to use the unique opportunities offered to it in history. To elevate our country's authority or to reproduce any alien mistakes already made by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in all countries is an intellectual elite of the country, so you also have the character to apply this resource, and I wish all of you and all those present, toRiga should be the place in the world where there will be an agreement between all parties with interests in the Ukrainian conflict and will enter history with the Riga peace pact, which will unite the world in a good way, Minister! (faction, applause)".
2015_01_22_281-seq64 translatedText "Dear Madam President, dear colleague, ladies and gentlemen, my remarks make it easier, as has already been said here, that I would perhaps just repeat what Mr TVNET wrote in the news portal TVNET, that Latvia could miss the opportunityto be heard in your presidency, Ka we can, he writes, really lay out his opportunity and, at this moment in time, we have the fear not to ask, as mentioned here, not just compensation; we have the fear of meeting with Lavrov; we have to ask for the fear ofthe return of the archives We fear to demand what last fought Vilis Bear, - to seek the return of the Library of the Hall, which was already written into the 1920 peace treaty and which Russia still retains and not given to us, We are afraid to talk aboutthe promotion of repatriation and the conclusion of a treaty that we are expected to make in the declaration condemning the crimes of totalitarian Communism We have the fear of having a treaty - as has been said - a Cabinet Treaty with the Russian cabinet on providing tangible help to those people who want toto come back to his ethnic state, we are afraid that, if one hundred thousand people were travelling, Latvia's economy would collapse Well, I would like to remind you, Minister, that Estonia has only 1.34 million inhabitants, and that exports per person are above 12thousands of euros! Latvian exports are only just a little bit smaller than the 6 thousand euros we saw as these' loyal' (in the quotation!) citizens with this restaurant chain Gan Bei, Latvia, behaved in this vast number of settlers who do not recognise itLatvian law or Latvian law hopes that, in some way, Latvia will return to an imperial form - or is it not one of the reasons why we have lower achievements than Estonia and Lithuania? So we are behaved, so to say, good and good. Politically correct Then, when there is a legitimate question - yesterday, when meeting with the Foreign Minister - why Ireland did not sign up to Lithuania, Estonia, Denmark and the United Kingdom to retaliate Russia's propaganda, as we are most affected and have the largest mass of influential people ,we get the answer that we do not already have to express our opinion that we are only the co-ordinators and that, in my latent temperate, we will do much more than what we can do, that we could well see it in Sunday's programme with the Lattelecom. Care relays at Lattelecom NEPLP custody So there was another bulletin after a jacket in Solovjova, where openly observable calls were made to tear up facilities in the Ukrainian territory of Notiek any breach of the law, and nothing happens! We are still with the state to support the nourishment of Lattelecom companiesso the Kremlin's propaganda broadcasts in Latvia We say: yes, we are playing a huge role here in the Presidency, but it must be said that in foreign affairs it is, in fact, essential for the European Union's High Representative, Ms Mogherini, to start again today our current one. Mrs Mogherini's proposal was to split the sanctions - that we are going to use extremely strict sanctions, while the occupation of eastern Ukraine and the occupation of Crimea as such, we will miss the second round and know what the horrors will be there? From Crimea no longer will the European Union be able to export the time of the wine Isabella, and what there will be no one to do yet and that we agree on it all as a small country, that we cannot do anything about it. Politically speaking, the fact that there is actually such a silent reconciliation with the occupation of Crimea in the hope that though the issue has already settled anywhere Will really believe, that High Commissioner Mogherini will show some principled if her diplomatic stances in foreign affairsthere were some 6 months in Italy when she was appointed as a Commissioner to have some kind of counterweight to, say, a strong, strong politician, Tusk? Or someone really believes that, coming from the Communist youth association and the Order of the Uprising, this highthe representative will be extremely keen to fight the occupation of Crimea as a matter of principle, if she accepts his own press secretaries with Gazprom-related people? Does not express a view or the Presidency not suggesting that sanctions in the event of the occupation of Crimea should be as stringent as in the case of the occupation of the East of Ukraine, Mr Tikko, that Russia has launched an extremely grave offensive with heavy arms, with tanks and thatafter the so-called Minsk Agreements Russia has already taken about 500 square kilometres from the Ukrainian territory, the Mariuums are also attacked and more than 1 200 people have been killed in this Minsk agreement, which was raised there? Government of UkraineMember of the Interior Minister Arsenic Avakov writes: " the Minsk agreement is nothing more than a lie where Russia's interest is frozen in a similar way to South Ossetia and Transnistria, many years ago, " So Latvia, as a small country, should also be determined that the Minsk Agreements arevery good and that there is no farewell to Russia, because there is not Russia as an aggressor? There are some separatists? But you see every day that eastern Ukraine is being shelled with heavy guns, thousands of guns are spent coming outthe fact that we have to believe in these heavy machine guns through the night keeps renewing, say, ordinary people, miners or pensioners Well, it's clear that these sanitary convoys all the time bring in the firepower and that it is pure Russian aggression as such. I think that our Presidency and I also agree with the journalists who write that we are a small country and we ourselves have suffered from this occupation and, above all, we should avoid hypocrisy in the concept of our foreign policy toothe Minister has written about the common European values of European values that could not be ambivalence, spoofing, we should in any case have avoided it and say in no uncertain terms between Starp, the third declaration adopted by Saeima is about the Latvian authorities. In the Second World War We are ward again, as there is a declaration in this declaration that we have to defend the honour and dignity of the Latvian lethionists, to prevent the invasion of honour and dignity in both Latvia and abroad in our foreign ministry when meeting with Lavrov, who was meeting with Mr Lavrovonce again, the revival of fascism in a way we defend the honour and dignity of Fascism? And we can see Ukraine defending the fact that the whole of Europe is, in this way, this one, and then in Latvia, there is no lethionaire in favour of thesethe hordes, which were invaded, were killed, murdered and sent out by people? Are we going to die in the camps, And what is our gratitude to these lecionaries? We allow us to point out that, when you say, 16 March may not go to Freedom, is it not hypocrisy and hypocrisy for the Presidency of the country?! And the last one yet on moral values We ,of course, in favour of freedom of expression and freedom of the press in 2001, Rozenberg, editor-in-chief of Kapitenberg magazine, was dismissed for allegedly protesting, and ironically, by the French embassy being the number of protesters, so we also havemorality can be a different one, on the one hand, we are in favour of freedom of expression, but on the other hand, calls for the introduction of new articles on various articles on various articles, whether we have this freedom of expression, are not, or are not, for usthis freedom of expression does not come like this French magazine, that the cartoonist, who had been appointed by Sarkozy's son, departed from work immediately - that there had been a single caricature! I hope we have time enough. And that our Ministry of Foreign Affairs, however, as I have already said, as a small country, will fight this hypocrisy and ambivalence, and that, to a certain extent, the values of this Europe will be kept for your attention (applause from Members of the VL-TB group)".
2015_01_22_281-seq62 translatedText "Dear Minister, dear Minister, dear Minister, colleagues, several days ago, the Latvian Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement that one of the priorities of Latvia's foreign policy priorities during the Presidency will be an update of the themes of the crimes of totalitarian regimes and the restoration of historical justice to the Domi that many in the UK have long overdue. Expecting the country to raise these issues as a priority for Mr Buscience in just a few months, I have already received a number of requests from repression to help them renew the historical justice I have consulted with the lawyers, and the conclusion was always one: while the conclusion was always one :there will be no political will, there will be no result! I am pleased that this political will has emerged for the Latvian citizens who are in the Gulaga camps for a truly priority issue, which cannot be postponed any longer, given that their respectable age is a prioritywelcoming parents whose sons were illegally conscripted into the USSR, and the reinstatement of the mutilated historical fairness of Latvia certainly also includes the return of Latvian cultural historical values, film and archives at the beginning of the presidency, the Latvian foreign minister has already had the opportunityto meet his Russian counterpart, and I believe that all of these issues were also discussed in the Fact, that it was not very public, assuming, assuming only a tactical step or a diplomatic strategy for the sake of, but above all, thosehistorical equity issues are finally on the Foreign Office's radar and the Presidency also offers a great opportunity to disprove those lies and fabrications, often spread by Russia as the recent example of Latvian and Russian foreign ministers. A joint press conference in which Lavrov once again claimed that non-citizens of Latvia had been treated as second-class people, despite the fact that, at the time, the referendum on Latvia's independence to the World Conference on Freedom of Thought was a great opportunity for the once and for once andto say that it is a lie to say that it is a lie in the poll of 3 March 1991 on Latvian independence, 411 thousand people voted' no' in the referendum of 17 March 1991 against the independence of almost half a million historians and researchers analysing the data clearly conclude ,the fact that the majority of Russian-speaking people voted' no' to not looking at it, Russia has been tiressed for years to tiresate and deflect our country so far, Mr Ziekle told the Latvian newspaper:' we do not havethere has even been a single state line and a concrete plan to refute, or simply rehearse, what has happened historically in the UK and is happening; that the Russian-speakers are not funny in the same brush with the historic Russian minority and minority rights at all, " as Latvia does not refer tothe Saeima Declaration on Latvia's occupation, the Geneva Convention and on other documents that clearly indicate the illegal origins of today's non-citizens in Latvia are causing serious problems for Latvia's representatives in international courts and other fora where the interests of our national interests in the UK are essential to express my hope ,the fact that the Presidency of the European Union will have a strong enough impulse to resoram our foreign language to change this case at the end of a few words about Latvia and the European Union's position towards Ukraine, both me and many others, are increasingly beginning to worry the European Unionthe High Representative for Foreign Affairs Mogherini, who appears to be targeting Crimea de facto, aimed at de facto the elimination of the sanctions in the absence of the occupation of Crimea, With either holding, but for Latvia, which has been occupied and anectated for 50 years, should be best understood as of nowthe Tatars of Crimea and the Ukrainians in the Russian occupied peninsula We should be the first to argue in the European Union that imposing sanctions on Russia with the occupation of Crimea is also caused by the European Union's proposed arrangement in eastern Ukraine As we know, this layout is based onthe requirement for the Minsk agreement in Tashi also knows that the warring parties have different interpretations of this agreement, in particular for elections and self-regulation after the end of the war, so Europe must not allow a repetition of the Crimean referendum happening again in eastern Ukraine, according toby leaving the territory under Russian control, although it must be clear to Russia and the international community that such a solution would not be accepted by the West in 1994, they could not accept Ukraine's territorial integrity but failed to do so. The guarantee to comply with It is, of course, disgraceful, but it would be disgraceful if, now, profits are now taken, the West beat the agresoram and abolishing sanctions should realise that such a move will not ultimately be profitable, nor peace Thank Members (VL-TB / Alliance Members)".

2015_01_22_281-seq60 translatedText "Madam President-in-Office of the Council. - (PL) Mr President, Mr Minister, Excellencies, ladies and gentlemen, the report of the Diaspora diaspora report is based on four foreign policy priorities, and the Citizenship, Migration and Conservation Commission, which is wiring, is one of the four priorities, AndI have had the opportunity for many years now to see a lot of practical action within the Ministry of Foreign Affairs or cooperate in the diaspora, and I am grateful and welcome that this cooperation will abstain from compliments on many specific cases of their listing, andmay it not be thanks on my part to ask: what can be done to improve what we can improve on this issue? Because, yes, there is a large number of Latvians living outside the UK at the moment, but it would not be a problem ;even the possibility of Bet's problem is the number of scores in the UK, and the trend becomes, of course, quite critical, especially given that young people will still face the challenge of going world, to gain experience, to gain an education, and it would not be reasonable to do so. To deny that it means that, as we are hearing today, it will mean that, as we also hear today, we will have the threat of immigration from other regions and, in no way, we must not be taken off from the target of the return of compatriots in Latvia( of course, without losing sight of the broader objective of strengthening ties with compatriots) And of course this is primarily due to the economic state of Latvia, with Latvia's global competitiveness, But it will always be important for us to know that anyone who is ready to return to Latvia will knowany chance to come back today or tomorrow is already a question of quality information that reaches as many people as possible abroad, and that's the practical issue of cooperation between the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, other ministries and the Saeima Two numbers fromthe studies on the diaspora First: 10-15 per cent are poised to return to certain conditions near 10-15 per cent - it wouldn't be so little But that the critical question is: how many cases coincide with this readiness to return to the UK with opportunities for themwork fully and live in the UK? And more importantly: how many are aware of this coincidences, about these opportunities and desire? And the second: 15 per cent of compatriots abroad are linked to diaspora organisations and I will say: just 15 per cent !- having regard to the fact that, at this moment in our diaspora policy, the country's links with the compatriots abroad are mainly carried out directly through the diaspora, So, a large proportion of compatriots abroad do not reach this information or reach very fragmented and subdued. So what do you do? It's a question of high-quality background and background links with the diaspora, and this is an area that we need to develop and improve so that everyone knows about every opportunity to return to Latvia here and now And herethere is a need for our joint cooperation - As a burning time to remember a song that's still in the boards years across the ocean, came to us from the compatriots: " unfortunately we have as little as we have, and more we can't be, " Does that? The answer was optimistic: " but I'm having a piece of lettering and that's something! " At the time, it was a unifying and self-sufficient Today I want to add: although success and wisdom are our allies, thank you (VL-TB / Alliance), thanks.".
2015_01_22_281-seq58 translatedText "Very honourable Members! Excellencies, colleagues, Minister, I listen to my colleagues speaking and think: I have correctly understood that we are looking at and assessing the Foreign Minister's report, but less express our opinion on foreign policy issues as they are here. There was a report to thank the Foreign Minister on the report: it is a very broad question: as a executive, in the Cabinet, there is a division of competences between ministries, Latvia and NATO? In the field of physical security matters, Article 15 of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs implements, coordinating and analysing the competences of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the implementation of national security policies, the coordination of Latvia's binding international security agreements, andan analysis of foreign external and internal policies in Article 4 (1) of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs provides for the development of a national foreign policy under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs both in developing and expanding the national external security policy and coordinates the development of the national position provided for in paragraph 5 5and the representation of interest in NATO's My comment report has not clearly been distributed, as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is carrying out in the Second Amendment of its National Security Act, the word' safety' should be agreed, the word " security " is used in a variety of different articles in the report. The importance of the second edition of the report is a quotation:' in response to developments in Europe, Latvia's foreign policy is focused on strengthening national security, NATO's presence in our region and support to Ukraine's' Security', regional and global security, "the following questions: the security situation in Europe and collective defence, the Common Security and Defence Policy and regional security, and the fight against terrorism, the proposal by the Minister for Defence to strengthen the National Armed Forces He, here speaking here, raised the proposalabout 2 thousand troops in professional defense forces Bet Well my comment in this section with the word " safety " only understands physical safety or protection, although locations are written " security and defence " in the National Security and National Security Actthe concept of' security' is understood to mean both economic and political, social and defence-related areas, including some 25 per cent in the fourth quarter, the departure of the population from Latvia, and whether the death rate in Latvia exceeds the rate of safetyat national level, as called for by its title? Concluding the legislation relatively well in the 20 century, but very badly, or not working at all in the 21 century, we all know what happened in 2008 in Georgia and events in 2014and now in Ukraine, this matter matters: what is being done and what is expected to be done in this area?".
2015_01_22_281-seq56 translatedText "Dear colleague, there is no doubt that in the aftermath of the terrorist attacks in Paris, there has also been a question of the issue of internal security in Latvia, and I would therefore like to express my opinion of the Foreign Minister's annual report on the intended activities and to complement the Minister's thesis that in 2015, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in association with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in cooperation withthe Ministry of Defence, the Ministry of Interior and other institutions will devote additional efforts to strengthening the cohesion of society, of course, the threat of terror in the UK is very low, but there is a certain risk of terrorist imports as a consequence of our entry into the EU for any entry into the UKliving as a terrorist has become incomparably simpler, and as regards the internal security of Latvia and strengthening the cohesion of society, I see a number of problems, but I will mention today just two: firstly, a divided Latvian society, whose representatives have a different historical memory and, secondly, individual chattovers ,in the face of slogans and infuriating the public from watching the first problem, one would like to note that the advantage of Latvia for centuries of co-existence and cooperation between ethnic, linguistic and religious groups does not, however, result in contradictory historical perceptions of Latvia's people ,who belong to various ethnic groups, Dieregret, in order to strengthen its influence, individual politicians use or even encourage emotional relativity, created from historical grievance and prejudice, I consider the policy of Latvia unacceptable and even dangerous for the public. Cohesion policy presupposes that the mutual trust between different groups of people belonging to the groups should be based on respect for the interests, characteristics and historical experiences of various groups of society, which can only be regarded as a success if the Latvians are concernedfor English development opportunities and if minorities are convinced of the real concerns of Latvian governments and MPs to preserve their language and culture, strengthening the principle of multicultural education in schools is an essential precondition for society's integration, creating a natural and favourable education systemon the environment, I think that it will help to define Latvia's priorities more precisely and strengthen the country's internal security, so that the voice of civil society is not only listened to, but also taken into account when on the second problem, it must be said that there is a low level of terrorism in Latvia. The level of threat, however, to make it even more minor, the politicians need not be left with slogans; there is no need for a society, but a series of concrete measures that could encourage UK politicians who bother with slogans, thereby instigatingin general, I believe that there is no need for a situation where foreign policy is being held hostage to domestic domestic politics and is starting to serve the narrow interests of individual parties, at the same time to the detriment of the Latvian state, Thank you for your attention (fractions of Members' applause)".
2015_01_22_281-seq54 translatedText "In the introductory speech, allow me to quote two passages from Henry Kissinger's new book " World order, " to which our library, just released (No medicine:' how many pay?'), can we free up this in this book. On the question of what the world will look like in the future, when new powers and power centres are created, Europe and America will have a place in the new world order? Remember yes And you still see a question mark where there is Iran And remember that during the time we waited for a war between America and Iran that almost, almost breaks outthe war Bet ko we see today, is it very likely that the Iranian question will be resolved and, of course, it will have a major impact on the entire international policy, I would like to say that this card was marked by one think tank in Norway when this century was breached in the previous one. The threshold of the century And then there only began in all the foreign policy institutes of the debate, and the directors of the European institutes summoned us to Washington, where America told us that, after 50 years, America would no longer be the largest in the world for the global economic power of Well ,we were thoroughly shocked by this paragraph, and that is what I am going to speak about now, So - two quotations But, before I read them quotations, I want to say so again: it was a think tank ,what went up - the new geopolitical card - and the smart ones of those countries that generously support their own research institutes quote No 1 To say Kissinger: " if the US were to be separated from Europe in political, economic and also defence, geopolitically theyit would become an island off the coast of Euro Asia, but Europe as such could turn into a appendix for Asia and the Middle East, " Triple 2 Te is about to say, railing against the US Ambassador to Moscow, William Walla Hodgson said :'to Bil, I do not dispute the facts of tavus, I do not dispute the logic of your verdicts I just suspect that Stalin is not a man of the Domarful, if I am going to give him everything I can, noblesse compulsory " (that" he does not seek to annexe and work for democracy and peace in the world, " he said. Every power wants to play the first fiddle of the Second quote, a lesson that can be learned from the formation of a relationship with the so-called new Russia, but it fully flows together with the challenge of the Latvian Presidency to a great extent to a great extent. The fate of Europe over the next decade, where we have been laying down the foundations of a sling, can start to swallow our European Union house and blend it will be hard to defend our national interests on wobbly foundations in particular :the European Union must conclude a free trade agreement with the US at the time of the Obama Presidency - the so-called TTIP, which means' Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership' Only, when it is done, we can turn to China and start negotiatingthe prospect of a free trade agreement between the European Union and China And those who listened carefully to what Mr. Obama said in his speech to the American people yesterday, was able to read between the lines of reading that he, about the same way, thinks He worries that China canimpose lower standards on American workers than they have today to think that the United States has a certain advantage - not to become isolated in the Gadida if the TTIP is passed, they are also negotiating with 11 Asian, North American and South American countries '. Another free-trade agreement, called Trans-Pacific Partnership This partnership includes the world's third largest economy - Japan But also the European Union has already started negotiations with Tokyo on a free trade agreement between the European Union and Japan. In the European Union, negotiations on a free trade agreement with Canada have just been concluded with Canada, which is also the Pacific contracting partner, So, you can see that there are already different agreements at the same time, in the hands of China, which does not participate in the Trans-Pacific Partnership negotiations. The conclusion of free trade agreements with Australia and New Zealand, which is also still part of the Pacific EPA negotiating group As you can see, development is dynamic, but one thing is clear: a free-trade agreement with the US is the largest that can be ,and it will bring together the two most powerful political and economic blocks in the world, the two together account for almost half of the world's GDP, This is a completely new form of trade agreement that will set standards for other similar contracts with third party casesto reach every block can no longer be It is, love us or hate it, the new reality of the future world reality is that the emerging and already existing new power centres - China, India, Brazil, Turkey - do not agree to the Western sanctionsthe sanctions imposed by the West to impose sanctions on Russia for blatant aggression against Ukraine for the countries of the Eastern countries are perplexed at all because it is the Asian region that is characterised by severe territorial disputes, of which we are protected in Europe.

2015_01_22_281-seq45 translatedText "Thank you, Madam President-in-Office, for your speech, thank you to all colleagues, and all colleagues, for their kind words and for the criticisms Bet well, it is now time to respond somewhat to some of the issues raised here and on the replications of the first place. I would really like to focus on what Mr Kola said, and I am somewhat surprised at each other's passions in this speech, bearing in mind that we very often meet in the Committee on Foreign Affairs and we have discussed a number of points in the absence of a clear European Uniona line against Russia, and also the position of Latvia in relation to sanctions, I do not know what language I could use and how could, say, be clearer that Latvia absolutely supports sanctions against the Russian Federation (heckling) until it isfulfilling the Minsk Agreements This is more than clear! On Monday, the European Union Foreign Affairs Council told them just as clearly that I could emphasise here again here that I understand the concern that the embassy in Moscow has, in cooperation with Russian companies, disclosed - whereelsewhere, our embassy has the necessary services for its activities? We are obviously not importing one or the other, purely physically, that this is a very strange statement on the part of terrorist groups in Ukraine I have already explained that Latvia was one. Those of whom, on 23 July last year, clearly asked the Foreign Affairs Council to produce the necessary materials for the recognition of these two so-called' people' republics, But this is not only a political issue and there must be enough informationfrom Ukraine, this has not yet happened if we receive - and we have said this for the Ukrainian side - the material, then undoubtedly the issue is going to be weird and incomprehensible that Latvia has done nothing to helpfor Ukraine Age, the human treatment of Latvia was one of the first countries in March last year that it took in the first 10 victims of Little's next 10, and we are looking into the possibility of such help continuing in Latvia this year, including 15 Ukrainian students at our universityin the special semester, which will be devoted to European law, European policies have done the same last year, as we did last year at the Law School, helping to prepare Ukrainian experts to work with the European Union on the fight against propaganda even before the Presidency, you see if we are ,let us listen more closely to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for both the statements and the activities, so I would draw your attention to the fact that, last year in the European Union Foreign Affairs Council, we made clear that there is a need to think about a single European channel in Russianon 22 November, on the main work of the Presidency in the field of foreign policy - I have written this letter to Federica Mogherini - I pointed to the fact that the strategic communication which, in other words, in the fight against propaganda alone, must bethe agenda of the European Union Foreign Affairs Council of the European Union is, of course, a good statement that the Central Asian region is not of particular importance, but China and all the other markets, although, until then, China and China have to come across its Central Asia? Yes, the issues of migration are very problematic, I understand, say, that this issue, both during our Presidency and then very, very hard, I would be very cautious about what we are going through at the moment. In the European Union, you are not even starting to make allowances where these quotas have not yet been made, Mrs Silas spoke of the fact that it was a tedious report - as a primary school textbook on Mrs Gaew's speech, II realise that it was even more boring and even simpler (Chamber laughter DEP J Kurute-Pakule applauding) First of all, the text of the text " Latvia believes " would draw attention to the fact that, in accordance with the generally accepted international practice, andwhat is enshrined in Latvian law, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs represents Latvia's country, And our report, our discussions here, including the opinion of the Foreign Affairs Committee, the European Affairs Committee, where we really had a very good exchange, generally represents this official position in the context of thatin future, if you read the statements made by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, for example, that Latvia expresses its condolences, Latvia condemns, Latvia believes, then we are really talking on behalf of the country, and that is one of the core tasks of the International Coalition for the Fight against ISIL Who it isthe Coalition, and why did we have or have not joined it? And that it needs the decision of the lawmakers to decide it is necessary only if Ireland sends its troops to operate in military operations This is not what we are going to do ,but we have politically decided to support this coalition, which has a whole row of countries - Western and Arab - to fight terrorists, both by controlling financial flows, and working on the Afghan missionthe Afghan mission - the one that it was, the military mission - ended in 2014, we have sent and actually are preparing additional contingent forces to train the Afghan armed forces, we can talk a great deal about how successful this mission was ,and look at the drugs, but let us not forget that, in 2001, after the acts of terrorism, it was the Taliban it was actually a Muslim extremist shelter! And in that sense, say, this operation was necessary because of the fact that Afghanistan still has a very long road ahead ,in order to normalise the situation (and it is in the Afghan hands itself!) - it is clear Pavisam is clear that we cannot agree on the maritime border with Lithuania and Estonia Today for the first time that we have a problem with Estoniawe have no problem with our neighbour when it comes to border controls, and I would like to draw attention to the fact that, with Lithuania, we have, indeed, concluded the Treaty This Treaty has not been ratified in Latvia for various reasons. The negotiations with Lithuania on the elaboration of the Economic Cooperation Agreement referred to in Article 4 of the border treaty, the Tam, must be of an unshaky way, when those negotiations end, we will come to the government as well as, very possibly, the Saeima - as is the case. There was the Treaty of Latvia and Russia - even though I had to discuss it and get a mandate for it now, the treaty has been concluded, it has not been ratified, and we know well why the Diplomatic Representations don't hear that we are anywhereI would like to inform the EU once again just before the last debate a year ago or two years ago, or two before, so maybe not everyone knows - so perhaps not all - sketched them out in the strategicthe courses by 2020 - in which countries we open the embassy at the moment we already have very good cooperation, the UK embassy in the United Arab Emirates - is accompanied by the embassy's embassy in Egypt and Azerbaijan along with the Estonian embassyin Kazakhstan, the Lithuanian consulate in the Latvian embassy has been working on the premises of the Latvian embassy in Moldova, and in particular the Baltic and Nordic Memorandum of Cooperation and mutual support for the diplomatic mission, say, to ensure that they areMr KRAUZES has already been asked about the OECD whether the economy will regain the funds I think yes, because participation in this organisation means a completely different, better, credit rating opportunity, say, to borrow a large project for implementing funds fora lot, much smaller than It is also, of course, a possibility, but it's largely up to us - to use the intellectual resource of our education system, our economic boost And, of course, there are also very, very strong elements of anti-corruption policy hereand I can only say that, in the negotiation process, we will undoubtedly stand for the realisation of Latvian interests in Liepusa, I would also like to say thank you very much for the many ideas and proposals that many of them have played a significant part in following every debate we actually havelook very carefully and take many proposals into account, both from the position and from the opposition, and we are trying to make every forthcoming report, just as the Olympic Games would have been better than the previous one, that I hope that we will already have the 2016 debate in the 2016 debate. There's a better quality of conversation Bet, in terms of the Presidency and the economic benefits, I would like to highlight just two things, in fact, in three cases where we have succeeded - and we need 28 of 27. Supporting other countries: the approval of the Juncker Plan both in Parliament and the Council, as well as the pooling of these funds both in the European Union and in Latvia's major economic projects, Should we, at the Council of Europe in March, be sorry, Junethe Digital Agenda, as we can see it, will be confirmed if we succeed in March with the Energy Union, I think it will also be precisely the factors contributing to Latvia's economy here that I would like to say that I should be firstthe reactions that have been made here are also much more to say, but I want to really listen further to this debate and to come back to another moment to respond to the forthcoming proposals - both ideas and criticism (applause from Members of the College).".

It is one year that it does not seem to be one of the simplest areas of foreign policy, but I am convinced that this will be much more difficult. This will be a challenge, not only for Latvia, but for the whole of the European Union and for the whole of the world. Even to say to the entire international community, too, I would like to focus on the economic dimension, economic aspects of the economy and, more precisely, the International Trade and Energy Committee, when you think about it, it is one of the most important factors determining the relationship between countries. And also, various geopolitical events in a small country's economy are unthinkable without export bases, while our production will never be able to sell to those countries with which we do not have a good ratio of Savuthly broader market means more outlets, more opportunities and faster development in the Transatlantic Agenda. The trade and investment partnership agreement, or the so-called TTIP, or, in other words, the Free Trade Agreement between the European Union and the United States, if it is concluded, will be the biggest trade treaty in world history, covering up to halffrom the study conducted by our global economy to the study carried out by the Centre for European Policy Studies, the total economic impact of the agreement, once adopted, would be a truly significant increase in GDP for the European Union of up to €120 billion, which is to sayat 0.5 per cent of the European Union's gross domestic product, Saviano gained 95 billion euros or 0.4 per cent of GDP, So very, very impressive figures! Most benefits from metalworking, pharmaceutical and food industriesthese are the sectors in which Latvia has the offer of an industry that is very important for the Latvian economy This Treaty would lift the US and the European Union's trade fees, which account for about 3 per cent of the total trade, in addition to thiscutting red tape which interferes with the reciprocal trade in this agreement is in the interests of Latvia, the European Union and the United States and it is very important that this Treaty is not purely an economic treaty It is also a political signal that the United States of Americaand the European Union is strategic partners, credible partners and cohorts This is particularly important in this troubled international climate, when one country overlooks a European card, anestering another country, and continues to destabilise the entire region. I would also ask the Ministers to pay special attention to this issue, and colleagues who perhaps are not fully satisfied with all of the chapters of this treaty, are directly opposed to the specific sections and not against the adoption of the whole treaty, a very important one is energy. Energy is, today, a matter of economic competition and the issue of national security in Bez, the independence of the country is not at all feasible at all in various decision making, as, as has already been seen in the wake of recent events in our own region, energy can be used as athe kind of gun that was and is being used to manipulate and even threaten Latvia in this situation must be particularly careful and active because we must therefore continue to look for new ways to diversify energy supplies to oil and gas prices. Today, there is no doubt that it is good for the whole economy of Latvia and for the entire European Union, just like every family in the European Union, not to change the fact that we are too dependent on one supplier and that we do not want this low oil pricedescendged into such complacency or winter sleep and lost a targeted move towards alternative gas supplies by sea, land through land through Poland from Central Europe, and think about energy efficiency, as the proportion of energy we don't consume is costing usI would therefore like to call on our Presidency in the Council of the European Union to use even more up-to-date energy security and diversification issues in Latvia's interests and, I am sure, the development of the shale gas industry in the European Union is, of course, currently at such a low levelthe price of oil, the development of this sector is going to develop, but I am deeply convinced that this sector will play a very significant role in the future global energy market, which is very much dependent on the above-mentioned European Union and the United States of America. I would like to wish the Foreign Minister and the entire foreign service to wish, and then wish, to wish this unique, during the Presidency, to preserve and take advantage of this unique, Presidency-by-day experience of Latvia's development.".
2015_01_22_281-seq41 translatedText "Very dear Madam President-in-Office of the Council, dear Minister for Defence, Commissioner, Excellencies, colleagues, unlike the previous speaker, I would like to thank not only the foreign minister but all of our Latvian foreign service not only for this mammoth and preciousthe report, but for every job you work, every work and a day of celebration, as already every year, has also been mentioned by several foreign policy researchers This report, which we have heard here in the Commons, is, in fact, the best public report available on Latvia's current affairs. On foreign policy, and I am also in favour of this assessment in this report, we are seeing the echo of the same minister, Mr There, the Commons, we are debating how to continue to cooperate further and also, in your speech, to emphasise the importance of the parliamentary dimension of the foreign policy. Not only because, as part of the Presidency of the Council of the European Union, Saeima holds a number of significant measures, but also because members of the assembly, as the whole parliament, have delegated their parliamentary assemblies to the work of several parliamentary assemblies, including the Council of Europe, the OSCE, NATO, the Baltic States and theas you have entrusted me with chairing the delegation of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe's delegation to the College of the Council of Europe will play its first session in a series of meetings between the six members of the Parliamentary Assembly. The report of the Council of the Council of Europe's Commissioner for Human Rights on the humanitarian situation of Ukrainian refugees and displaced persons at the urgent procedure of the terrorist attacks in Paris, as well as a decision on the futurerecalling the mandate of the Parliamentary delegation of the Russian Federation that the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, owing to the occupation and annexation of Crimea, has taken away the voting rights of the Russian delegation during the April part of last year and its representatives from all the leading Parliamentary Assemblythe Russian delegation was denied the right to vote in parliamentary assembly meetings until the end of 2014, the Parliamentary Assembly said: " the Assembly strongly condemns the Russian military aggression and the subsequent annexation of Crimea, which is a clear statute of international law, including the UN Charter ,and the failure of the Council of Europe's fundamental rules, " No one of the arguments invoked by the Russian Federation to justify its conduct is not true in the Crimea, and the Russian Federation's illegal annexation of Crimea has no legal effect, and the Council of Europe does not recognise ittherefore, the new Parliament delegation to the Council of the Council of the Council of the European Council should also continue to work on these issues, also by continuing all of us with such a very important human rights theme, and I would also like to congratulate us on the fact that the United Nations General Assembly in October last year was elected to Latviathe three-year term of the UN Human Rights Council - from 2014 to 2017 - is the first time that Latvia has been elected to such a Council, which is the most important body of the UN human rights body ,the huge appreciation of Latvia's foreign policy course and the know-how of the protection of human rights, as the UN Human Rights Council mandate covers the widest spectrum of human rights and humanitarian rights - the range of issues that are fortunately not even faced with EU support. The core thematic priorities for Latvia in the United Nations Human Rights Council - an increase in the freedom of expression and the participation of civil society - and the involvement of civil society in the UN Human Rights Council continue to focus on the issue of gender equality, not only in the UNthe Human Rights Council, of course, and of course in the Presidency of the Council of the European Union, Notres Paris, and now also in Belgium too painfully, about the problem of terrorism and the problem of radical extremism are, of course, a need for a broad-based approach, both at national and in the European Union as well asat a global level, the issues of radicalisation and radicalisation have already been on the agenda for our Presidency in the European Union, we are talking here that we must continue to focus on the causes of terrorist problems outside Europe, particularly in Syria and Iraq, but we cannot relax the European Unionwithin the Union, where an important mutual coordination, rapid exchange of information between the security authorities is needed in order to be able to identify potentially dangerous persons in good time with the Passenger Name Record Directive, where problems are also looming in the context of the Paris events that the terrorist's spouse wasit has been possible to leave Europe precisely the following shortcomings in the mutual exchange of information, This is a huge challenge for each legislator - the high, European-based human rights standards in a European framework designed to protect the privacy of the public, in order to protect privacy with regard to public safety. As well as freedom of expression or assembly of conscience and religion, the Notices of Paris, in Paris, led us once again to think of the value and importance of freedom of expression, of course, the acts of terrorism in their own right, but also by Islamic hard-liners. To counter the freedom of expression of Islamic values or - on the contrary - the alleged demonstrations by Western values, including anti-Islam demonstrations (such as Pegida demonstrations and others similar in Germany and elsewhere), show that freedom of expression continues again - todayespecially! - We have to protect the word' again' because of the dangers of this value, we are constantly being told that events both abroad and at home have been told that Latvia has been very active in the release of Peter Greta during the last year. The efforts of dozens of journalists have been killed in the last five years in the OSCE region, many have been attacked, many lives have been put at risk owing to a number of reports published by the OSCE and the Council of Europe on freedom of expression among the oldestand the most significant human rights principle of freedom of expression in a democratic society has been consistently recognised by the European Court of Human Rights, recognising that it forms one of the fundamental foundations of a democratic society, one of the basic conditions for its progress and the development of each man's court. It has underlined that freedom of expression is characterised by democratic state equipment and the extent of this right: the European Union's Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, in particular, of the European Union's Charter of Fundamental Rights, also includes freedom of information and, of course, those freedomsexpression is subject to formalities, conditions and restrictions, which should, however, be narrowly interpreted, and the need to be clearly proven by the Glass colleague, the restriction of freedom of expression may be allowed in some cases, in order to protect the public from other fundamental rights, but also in terms of freedom of expression ;having worked not only in these days, it should be pointed out that the boundaries of freedom of expression in the legal state are determined by law, not by the propensity to carry out his work under safe conditions - without fear of being harassed, to be victims of an attackwhether murdered - playing a key role in the spirit of freedom of the press and expression in the spirit of the Charlie Hebdo version of Paris has shaken the whole world, Latvia has been shaken and reminded us once again that freedom of expression and the freedom of the press are values that cannot beit is considered, for granted, to be granted for granted and beefed up, I am pleased, especially in terms of the priority role of freedom of expression and media freedom in this year's foreign policy plans. The principles of these principles have always been defended in various international fora and this year, as the Presidency of the Council of the European Union plans to organise several transnational actions on freedom of expression and media freedom, in which I also look forward to the participation of our parliamentarians from 2 to 4. The House will also vote on a resolution on this topic. Therefore, honourable colleagues and colleagues, we all feel very intuitive that this year will be a difficult year, a lot of work and a challenge for both the foreign minister and the foreign service, and all of us here here, we can all do very ,there is a lot of other things to do in favour of freedom of expression in favour of the fundamental values of a democratic state, both at home and in Ukraine, in Russia and in international organisations, whose Member State we all have the strength to do so, thank you (fractions of the Members of the Members).".
2015_01_22_281-seq39 translatedText "The honourable President-in-Office of the Parliament, Mr. Saeima, the honourable Member of the Saeima, has been behind the Foreign Affairs Ministry's Foreign Office reports for years on the quality of reports in recent years, because in practice, the risk assessment provided by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has proven to be a risk assessment and thatthe state's marked line has been flawed, not to mention previous reports in the Aveat of 2014, in a 2014 foreign policy report, just less than two months before Russian troops occupied Crimea, the foreign ministry said in its report in support of the introduction of a visa-free regime between the European Unionand Russia, as well as expanding cooperation, is not to be surprised that, when reading a vision of this future, many companies made a decision in recent years to focus their business activity only on Russia, the National Alliance has criticised this position during the previous year, in foreign policy debates ,in the foreign policy debate in the Commons, the National Association has already indicated that the impact of international situations should be mentioned by the aggressive attempts to create a new empire in the border area of Latvia, which has given the Eurasian name of the Union, and pointed to the need to prevent Russia's soft power activityin Latvia, I will quote two passages from the National Association last year, and I quote:' rather than the unstable situation in North Africa, but it is Russia's imperial ambitions and aggressive foreign policy that pose the greatest threat to security for Latvia and our region as a whole. The cases in which Latvia's security or direct interference in Latvia's internal policy of Russia have been directly linked to Latvia's domestic policy, or direct interference in Latvia's internal policy, Russia's foreign policy cannot ignore Russia's aggressive foreign policy as a threat to all of usit would be in Latvia's interest to take steps so that the reconstruction of the empire does not fail and Russia should be a normal European country with which Latvia could establish a respectful relationship " (end of Citte), the Ministry of Foreign Affairs would have listened to the National Association. Today, the far more secure report in Latvia is less comparable to reality, but I would expect Mr RINKĒVIČS to admit that in previous years the Foreign Ministry's position and risk assessment have at least been imprecise, if not mistaken, as I have already mentioned, thisthe foreign policy report is better than previous years, to appreciate the fact that, even before the debate, the report was improved, like the Foreign Affairs Committee, I would like to emphasise today that the report's position is reactive and not properly appreciatedthe causes of the various developments, and the long-term development of our country, will cite an example which, in a similar format, appears in many parts of the text (I quote):' in view of the changes in the strategic security environment of Russia in Ukraine, Latvia's priority in NATO has been a whole package of measures ,the European Parliament will vote on a resolution on this topic. On a constant basis - apart from Russia's aggression in Ukraine, in the eyes of the National Union of Ukraine - the main challenges for our region's security remain identical as in previous years: Russia's imperial ambitions and aggressive foreign policy pose the greatest threat to our region, Ukraine is just the next phase of Russia's expansion. The first aggressive expansion took place in 2008, when Russian troops invaded Georgia and occupied parts of its territory in the context of Russia's desire to expand the border to neighbouring countries, it is very important that NATO is permanently residing in NATO countries bordering Russiain order to prevent Russia from threatening Russia's will to threaten the alliances of the Member States, including Latvia, we very much appreciate the actions of the United States and other alliances in the Alliance, strengthening Latvia's safety in this cooperation would certainly have to continue to develop on this issue. On Russia's imperial ambitions, Russia has clearly signaled its willingness to restore Russia's empire within the limits of the First World War. We must be clear that the Kremlin is ready to go across the bodies of Little Russian soldiers removed from Ukrainethe Ukrainian occupation of the Ukrainian occupation of the Ukrainian occupation of the Ukrainian occupation of the Baltic States is, therefore, our task, therefore, to achieve a strong position of allied countries on this issue in the Democratic world, and the attitude of Russia towards Russia's actions andaccordingly, action by the Kremlin cannot be attributed to the protection of freedom of expression accepted by the Kremlin in the Western world; the Kremlin's government, trained by the Kremlin's ideologue, may not apply the right to freedom of assembly and association: we can argue about the terms of whether Russia is a country wherebased on terrorism, whether it is a pro-terrorism-based country, it is, in itself, an agresoral state, but the most important is the absence of timely action to stop the activity of the Kremlin loyal to the Kremlin, pseudomedus and the country's lack of strengthening of physical protection, Ukraine is similarlythe scenarios, unfortunately, can happen again both in Central Asia and in Europe, and we also have many homework to do in Bez in the past, we need to expand the black list with the Kremlin-led millionaires who have set up their business in Latvia and review what services in the country are doing. Buys from Russian companies: why was the reconstruction of the Russian company, which has been entrusted to a billionaire by the Russian company, whose owner has been approached by the billionaire Un apart in 2013, yet the President of the Latvian State presented him with a cross of views and close cooperation. The Baltic and Black Sea countries could significantly undermine Russia's European expansion, which is why the future of the Baltic States will have a major impact on the future of Ukraine and Belarus and their ability to secure their independence in the shaping of Much's foreign policy. The National Union of Parliament and the Foreign Affairs Commission, too, have also drawn up the Foreign Affairs Commission's possible priorities, which would allow the Government of Esam to be more effective in implementing the Esam declaration in order to ensure that the Foreign Affairs Commission is not only in a position to approve the laws of other institutions in the Member Statesit is keen for Russia to be a normal European country with which Latvia is able to establish a respectful relationship, I am convinced that this development is of interest to the whole of Europe, so that wars and senseless executions become a thing of the past, (applause from the VL-TB / Alliance)".

The focus of world attention in Ukraine throughout the year, And there is no doubt that the events we have had in such a volatile European country remain at the heart of the foreign policy of Latvia, without denying that the overall security situation in Europe has become more precarious. The threat level for Latvia and a new Cold War in Europe have unfortunately become a regular subject to debate, but we can also see clearly that the challenges to Europe's security have brought global attention and Russia's policy has been strongly condemned; andthe joint NATO response to the collective defence and the presence and visibility of the alliance in this region, under a growing role in Latvia, in the last year, there is no question of the importance of the' allies' in Latvia at this moment on the role of the' allies '. Seeing Latvia's membership of NATO has been an absolutely right geopolitical choice and that direct membership of Nato is the guarantor of our national security in Our Foreign Policy much more has been to think about strengthening the country's external security, exploring opportunities for the Ukrainian crisis, as wellit will also be necessary to take substantial decisions in the development of relations with Russia in the relations between our bilateral and international organisations, both within our bilateral and international organisations; this is explained by Russia's policy in Ukraine and the annexation of Crimea in 2014a series of restrictive measures against Russia, the sole aim of which has been to prevent Russia from aggression in Ukraine and to push for respect for the principles of international law, I would like to emphasise that in future, efforts should also be made to find diplomatic solutions to Russia's recent Pozitive Foreign Minister's recentthe visits to Kiev and Moscow; this confirms Latvia's willingness and capacity to be constructive in the way the European Union is negotiated and to look for options for negotiations in such a seemingly desperate political climate, with the continuing attacks of militants on Ukrainian military forces on a daily basis. At the same time, in the east of the country, I call on the Foreign Minister to continue, as a matter of priority, to seek diplomatic solutions and avoid emotional or hasty decision-making that cannot contribute to a peaceful settlement of the situation in Ukraine, but can have undesirable consequences for Latvia, our farmers, the dairy farmers ,in the processing and transit sectors for workers in the processing and transit sectors, we should not forget the threat of terrorism and radical extremism in the Notices of France, Belgium and elsewhere that the problem of terrorism is acute, not only in the Middle East, Africa and othersin remote regions, but also in Europe, we must not allow this type of aggression to develop, and therefore actively continue to support the global fight against terrorism, Mr Glass colleague, that Latvia has continued to stay in close bilateral contacts with the countries of the Eastern Partnership and Central Asia. To mark the President's contribution to this relationship, this direction of cooperation has also been included in the European Union Council of Ministers' priority to further develop this cooperation, including at the end of the Latvian Presidency, in order to ensure this mutually beneficial political andfurther to the development of economic contacts, I think that the cooperation with the Eastern Partnership and Central Asian countries should be a long-term priority of our foreign policy, when it comes to this cooperation, I would also like to mention the possibility of parliamentary diplomacy and political dialogue, and I call on colleagues to actively take their active use of SheitI should mention both our bilateral contacts with the parliaments of other countries and the multilateral dialogue between the various interparliamentary delegations in the interparliamentary and parliamentary delegations to the Interparliamentary Union, I would like to mark the meaning of this 166 national parliaments representing the parliaments of the World Parliaments. As part of its actions, the Union seeks to promote the development of democracy and parliamentary diplomacy in the world, with the common principles for parliamentary support developed by the Parliaments of the Interparliamentary Union, the national parliaments of the developing countries will also be involved in the parliamentary development assistance programmes ,the Eastern Partnership countries mentioned - Georgia, Ukraine, Moldova, Azerbaijan, Armenia and Belarus - and, of course, the Latvian delegation believe that the implementation of the principles of democracy, the rule of law, the rule of law, gender equality, economic and social development, and support for those objectivesfurther to the development of parliamentary democracy, peace, stability and economic growth in the world, I would like to conclude by wishing all of the Latvian Presidency-in the Council of the European Union to be accountable, successful and, of course, resistant to the success of our country's first Presidency. I hope that in the forthcoming foreign policy debate we will be able to look back on the success of the Latvian Presidency in the Council of the European Union, on its achievements in strengthening Europe's competitiveness, the digital agenda and the global role, so that we are all good!

2015_01_22_281-seq35 translatedText "Honourable Members, honourable Members, Mr Excellencies, colleagues, first of all thank Mr RINKĒVIČS for his report on Latvia's foreign policy to emphasise that the successful cooperation of people in defence and foreign affairs has been, and will be, a crucial part of many decisions for the first time in foreign policy debates asI spoke to the Minister for Defence almost a year ago - at a time when no one could yet imagine how the security situation in Europe and the world, the political agenda for the time of year, is growing: Crimea, eastern Ukraine, ISIL, separatism, the threat of terrorism in Europeat times crucial to the ability of the politicians and the willingness to find solutions, it is a huge responsibility for all of us and also for you, the Members of the Parliament, to compare this to 1991, when we were prepared to fight against the lapses, but through wisdom, diplomacy and allies, to us. Being able to regain independence with no bloody victims Since I am secretary of defence, I would like to focus on the fundamental aspects of the synergies of Latvia's foreign and security synergies: we share the view that our foreign and security policy must comply with the long-term interests of our country. Convinced that we are in agreement on the common values of Europe - human rights, equality, democracy, the rule of law, freedom of expression, because the common values are the basis for being united in our diversity in the European Union, even if we are nation-based. Our national policies, each laying down their foreign policy and defence policy, represent and defend the national interests of their country, which is why we should, primarily in Saeima and the government, clearly define Latvia's national interests and defend Latvia's preservation and strengthening of Latvia's independence. The main priority for the events of the Notices in Ukraine has determined that we must draw the right conclusions quickly, adopt forward-looking decisions and implement an ambitious policy to ensure that national security and defence are consistent with the current and predictable challenges of the future of the Latvian Presidency. The start of Russia's aggression in Ukraine, as our priority in defence policy, defined the need to promote cooperation between the European Union and NATO West's global response to the war in Ukraine proves how influential the results can be if the two organisations act in a coordinated way without duplicating theirthe idea of resources and functions for us is to encourage such division of labour for Latvia and all the other countries of the European Union that the European Union will use its diplomacy a lot more effectively, the cooperation mechanisms of these civil instruments are apparent on the need forbackground to the crisis in Ukraine, it should be acknowledged that the border between internal and external security has now become very narrow, with the cooperation of civil and military institutions in both Latvia and the European Union as a whole to be one of the priorities yetthe new term " hybrid risk " means that military and civilian institutions must overcome the risk of resorting, so as to prevent potential threats from being put in place in order to be able to function effectively in the real crises Our goal is to ensure that potential security risks are not only recognised by European defence. Ministers, but also the European Commission, responsible for areas such as the border control or audiovisual policy in the context of Ukrainian events, is acquiring a new dimension in our strategic partnership with the US in February Last year and a quick US response proves the US presence in Latvia ,bravery and Europe are essential and can be decisive in the way US jobs have clearly demonstrated, that it is ready to fulfill its promises to promote the security of Latvia and the Baltic. We must strengthen this strategic partnership on security and, at the same time, essential for ourforeign policy in the US develops much more broadly in both economic co-operation and investment areas, including the strengthening of Latvia's energy security, and to be aware that NATO is and will remain the main guarantor of Latvian security and protection Once: last year's Nato summit in Wales was adopted, dareto argue, Europe has historically, and certainly Latvia, as an independent country, with important decisions setting targets and challenges for the alliance as a whole and the consistent implementation of individual tasks conferred on individual Member States by Member States and national parliaments, governments, defense ministries and the armed forces. The task of joint military plans approved by the Alliance already in February this year, Some decisions have already been marked - NATO's rapid reaction force, the Allied Force rotation, expanded participation in training, joint command centers in We, Latvia, are important to NATO, which aims to provide NATO with a view to ensuring thatthe security, independence and territorial integrity of the Baltic States are ready to respond and they have the capacity to protect NATO's potential to protect their Member States as the crucial cornerstone of deterrence policy. In our country, one of the fundamental tasks of Latvia's foreign policy, which requires work and resources, we must all realise that it is not only a matter for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and of the Ministry of Defence, because the Member State of NATO is a country rather than a separate ministry. Together, we should be able to take decisions and carry them out by focusing on targets, and to achieve this opportunity, I would like to remind you of some historic events that the Republic of Latvia, the Poles, the French and the English, would like to remind you that, on the other hand, Poles, French and French would like to remind you that, on the other hand, Poles, French and French would like to remind you that, on the other hand, Poles, French and French would like to remind you that, on the other hand, Poles, French and French would like to remind you that, on the other hand, Poles, French and French would like to remind you that, on the other hand, Poles, French and French would like to remind you that, on the other hand, Poles, French and French would like to remind you thatin the Second World War's forests up until the 1950s, people were hiding in anticipation of an allied departed To recalling, my goal is to restore our historical memory of collaboration and support for the country's keynote thanks to the cooperation and support To fail to renew without thisthere is support after the Second World War but, in 1991, I managed to emphasise: spending together with our allies means the foundation of shared values of our diversity as our allies are here, because it is crucial for our and important to their security. And we need to be aware that the desire of the allies to invest in the UK's defence is directly related to our own will to live up to our homework so far, Ireland has been actively engaged in the collective mission of NATO, and I can assure you that the allies' reactions are strong. We need to be proactive in March last year, we need to be proactive in strengthening collective defence and participating in operations and allied training and the rapid reaction force we have to do? We have to prove that we arewe are very willing to defend Latvia's people's readiness to do so, however, to persuade allies to be convinced of our self-defence capabilities, we must go towards adequate funding of defence capability, I would like to thank Saeima for its decision to gradually increase the defence budget to 2 percent. From GDP in 2020, the decision is testament to the allies that Latvia takes its security and defence seriously, and our allies have already assessed it, and that our soldiers, Both alone, are expecting to see a consistent implementation of this Decision. Another crucial challenge: we need professional, well-trained and motivated soldiers It also means that we need to increase the number of soldiers As Minister for Defence I will turn to you this year - MPs, Defence, Home Affairs and Corruptionthe Anti-Prevention Commission - in calling for a politically crucial decision and on behalf of national national security to accept the increase of the number of troops on 2 thousand troops by the end of 2018 This suspension, hiding behind bureaucratic excuses for not increasing the national regulatory apparatus, is not far-sightedthe soldiers in the current security situation are not the state apparatus of the Vusi being a national guarantee of Our nation's security also based on the confidence of our people that the country is able to protect us in our understanding and belief that Latvia, though smallthe country, as a case-by-case example, is a celebration of yesterday's celebration of the liberation of Latgales in 1920 and the reunification of the Latvian Commander, General Peter Radzina, who highlighted the liberation of Latgales, a victory for Latgales. Over a tremendous amount of security and propaganda, it was only thanks to the idea of a nation state, therefore, that our knowledge of the country, history, protection has to serve as a basis for our self-esteem and self-respect, with an active foreign policy and coordinated internal, public awareness andparticipation, as well as the national interest-specific financial priorities, is to ensure the protection of Latvia from the challenges of the present and future security and there is a single objective: a single, safe and peaceful Europe, a secure and peaceful Europe, and Thank you (applause)".

2015_01_22_281-seq33 translatedText "Excellencies, Minister, colleagues, I will indeed be watching my tradition as always, because much has already been said by Mrs Schulz, Mrs But our faction will not, as Mr Solvita, representing the party representing us, has said, will be just supportive of Our thoughts. And the initiative that we propose will therefore be our guiding point at this moment to support the thoughts of those who were mentioned in this report and are very good in proposing, which we believe should be improved, I would like to draw attention to the fact that thisthe report is about what has been done and the envisaged cooperation activity in the country's foreign policy will start with quite little progress, and that is why we propose that, in the future, these reports will account for the specific economic benefits of the particular economic benefits of the Latvian populationthe Latvian state's foreign policy, in a particular year, Mrs Aboltv mentioned here specifically about the milk to China We would have liked to hear a 2014 agreement at least a short description of what they have been and what they have been borne by the national economy of course ,we understand that our involvement in security matters plays an active role in international institutions and, without it, we are more or less there, but we may suggest in the future that such reports should not be made as ambitious as in the future." The Presidency of the Council of the European Union will allow Latvia to set up the European Union agenda and influence the European Union's policy direction, in line with Latvia's economic growth objectives, " Of course we wish, but can we do it at this moment? Indeed, the words of praise on foreign policy on the issue of the diaspora have succeeded in making sure that the work of our diaspora, especially in the great capitalist countries, is supportive, but it is more relevant to the diasporaas representatives of Latvia who have left Latvia in 1940, what policy is there for those who left Latvia in the 1990s and leave every day and every year? We would like to see we propose more specifics in this foreign policy. The plan for the Future of the Questions we noticed is a positive strategy for the cooperation with Belarus Tur can really feel that the country has a plan of action and she's going after Labs or bad but there is still a lot ofthe Plan to advise that we also have the will to work with Central Asia, Japan, China, Brazil, Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean, we understand all of this? The Baltic States, including Lithuania, where there is now a question of how conflicts between Lithuania and Latvia are going into conflict with Latvia for airBaltic and the airport of Riga? The diplomacy that Mr Kalnins has already mentioned would be what the Latvian Alliance of Regions would like to see, both in our internal and foreign policy, and in foreign policy, I think it is quite funny to listen to two representatives of one power party: one speaks that the report isbroad, exhaustive and best heard by someone, the other says to criticize it and says it is a weak call for the power of the party to agree on a common national foreign policy, as it cannot be that a representative representing the whole country is ,in other words, our fellow claws, the President of the Saeima, are refusing to meet the Ambassador of a country because her party has such a policy of diplomacy, and I would also call for this to be a method of foreign policy agreement and I would like to see thatthe President, foreign minister and the President of the Republic speak for one and also operate after one single one-way plan and it wouldn't be that we just say something that is bad or good, I will say this: Latviathere is such a beautiful place to be pleased about, and we are doing it, but Latvia is currently vulnerable, Mr And you, Mr RINKĒVIČS, at this moment, you are one of the main actors in our foreign policy that I should therefore call for. Only for a lot of money to buy representation in a building, let's say in Geneva, as it was last year, but also to make a real contribution to the Latvian economy and strengthen the borders, not by words, because it was not clear whether it is about strengthening the border witheconomic development in border areas, in cooperation with the US and the countries of the European Union, or will happen by building a wall of China, I would really encourage you to introduce more specifics next time in this report, so that there is a less bureaucratic floor to your attention (applause)".
2015_01_22_281-seq31 translatedText "Honourable Members, honourable Members, Minister, Excellencies, the Year of Instituting has been marked with convulsions, both in international security and in the economics of the Military conflicts, economic turmoil, acts of terrorism, and much else Europe has changed in the world, despite the fact that we are in Latvia, despite the fact that the world has changed. What we need to look after both for national security and for the economic development and well-being of the people in Jo in particular, is the time when Latvia holds the Presidency of the European Union in the Council of the European Union, the interests of our national foreign policy are important, but I am todayI would like to highlight the importance of economic interests, and I would like to pick up my speech from the previous statement of Pozitive to the Foreign Minister's annual report that, despite geopolitical shocks, Latvia will be even more inclined to support entrepreneurs in the acquisition of new markets, with an emphasis on the export marketthe diversification of Latvia's foreign policy should be based on national interests in consultation with national economic operators, carry out global market assessments by setting up promising directions, ensure Latvia's goods and services and direct the interests of Latvian business into our foreign policy economic interests should be a priority in order to ensurethe development of our businesses, jobs and decent wages for the Latvian people, there is no room for a solution without active foreign policy that Latvian entrepreneurs are interested in specific conditions that would promote the movement of goods and services across the EU border We are an ancient partner .- the closest neighbours of the Baltic Sea region, European countries, the United States and Canada, but we also have an Eastern Partnership, as well as look at new directions: the countries of Central Asia, the Middle East and China are the markets where we should have to look after Latviathe diplomatic achievements of the production of products outside the countries of the European Union and the uptake of new markets in these regions could be a good, viable basis for a long-term recovery in our economy for international organisations and other countries, with three priorities: national security ,encouraging Latvia's goods and services on the global and European markets, attracting investment to Latvia, thus contributing to social and economic development in this context, I would like to note that we have set the course and move towards becoming a member of the OECD anda member of the Development Organisation's foreign affairs experts says: joining such a prestigious organisation as the OECD represents Latvia's quality mark, which means that we have a credible and developed country that has a wide range of knowledge and information, as the organisation has earned a first-class record of decadesexpertise That is very nice, but unclear is the question of the price that we will be paying for membership of this organisation during the implementation of the Jau budget, the fact that hundreds of thousands of current expenditure has been planned in a number of budget chapters, as well as afterthe membership fee will be paid for in this prestigious organisation; our economy will recover funds spent with the program, and have the relevant estimates also been made for our land, so I hope that our land is important as we move towards membership ,we will not sacrifice national interests, for example by opening up our forest and agricultural land markets, making it available to citizens of other countries outside the European Union, on the European dimension, work on the development of inequalities between rich and poor should be included on the agenda. It is not acceptable for the countries of the world's 80 richest to be the same as half of the poorest, together with the gap between rich and poor countries, the main reason for the huge stimuling of the great nations is why the Old Europe faces the security challenges facing themtoday, Latvia needs to urgently develop, as a matter of urgency, a very new migration policy for AGRI or late migration policy, but, at a time of rapid events in the world, it can happen much faster than we have predicted if we are talking about Europethe Union, I can say that, in either institution, Latvia does not have as many votes in order to be able to have any significant influence on the result, but there are many different options that we can skilfully use in the Presidency, many of the Latvian representatives in different EU institutions are leading the wayand coordinates important European Union-level questions that These people will have experience which cannot be learned by attending courses, seminars or reading a book here in Latvia, we must use the potential of these highly qualified professionals to defend their national interests in the post Presidency of the EU. I believe that, with the correct use of this potential, we can, in the future, make many wins in the fight for national interests at the European Union level in the European Union, our bottom line must be: articulate and remind all Member States that all Member States, in the common interest of Europe, are allthe full development of the Solidarity Area is a word that very often in Brussels so often calls for in terms of dealing with the effects of the crisis and the effects of the embargo, and the decision on sanctions was adopted in solidarity and decisions onfinancial assistance for victims of these sanctions should be accepted in solidarity, covering expenditure from the three main priorities of the Latvian Presidency of the European Union's budget: a competitive Europe, a digital Europe and a Europe I want to focus on on the priority of our competitiveness in the agricultural context. Improving the competitiveness of agricultural products is essential, therefore, measures to promote the competitiveness, quality, sustainability and employment of Latvia's agricultural, food industry, forestry and the fisheries sector will now have an important role to play in the individual Europe-specific farming in Europe. In this context, the agriculture and forestry sector, in this context, must certainly take into account the specific nature of Latvia's agricultural sector, in this context, that our agricultural production is perfectly prerequisites for development, we must not allow Latvia to :one of the most green countries cannot be to develop environmentally-friendly and sustainable farms (e.g. to increase the number of animals in herds) only because we do not have enough allowances for the European Union and Latvia to face dangerous animal infectious diseases, such as those hitherto in Europethere have been no widespread (e.g. African swine fever) There is, in addition to many farmers, the consequences of Russia's embargo on many sectors in many sectors, the situation of organic farming is one of the priorities of the Commission since the Commission published the proposal for a regulation on the organic matteragriculture, the Council of Ministers, has held many lively discussions about the main task of the Latvian Presidency to reach an agreement at Council level, so that we can enter into negotiations with the European Parliament, so that the new proposal fully meets Latvia's interests in order to simplify the Common Agricultural Policy into a secondfrom Latvia's most important priorities in the area of agriculture, we must not lead to ever new bureaucratic and administrative burdens for our farmers at the moment, neither Latvia nor the European Union accept new laws, are creating additional difficulties for producers and for public administration ,at the same time, telling everyone that it should not be simplified is no longer the case, each new law must actually reduce the burden and make it easier for farmers in both the UK and elsewhere in Europe to employ a Russian embargo on agricultural products. Now, the embargo has now been in place for five months, we cannot predict whether it will be in force for the entire set of deadlines (one year) or it will be revoked or extended in the light of the unpredictability of the situation, both for Latvia and the Commission andfor all Member States to work on a new market for searching agricultural products - and not just agricultural products, I would like to say: we all have an engaging face, a challenge and a serious time in the European Union - the Latvian Presidency in the Council of Europe and other challengesin foreign policy, I believe that together we will be able to come to an agreement on a number of important issues and work closely together on all of us, in order to strengthen Latvia's security, develop the economy, create new jobs and raise citizens' well-being (applause)".

2015_01_22_281-seq25 translatedText "Honourable President-in-Office of the Council. - ladies and gentlemen, Minister, ladies and gentlemen, in the annual report of the Minister of Foreign Affairs on the progress made and what I hoped was to find an answer to the question as to the foreign policy, how this will be realised, not on the question of the government and Europe. The priorities of the Presidency of the Union, as they have been written in other general documents, are drawn up every day, Bet what measures we have taken and what needs to be done in order to achieve the foreign policy statement of the Government declaration: guarantee national security, stability and transnational creation. The economic growth and well-being of the country, which has spread to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs as a major scourge, is neither an analysis of the current situation, nor the " intended function " of the report ,a bureaucratic report which instead answers questions only unanswered the question: how the foreign policy has helped and will continue to address issues of national security and economic growth? There has recently been a reading of the report being so vividly boring as a primary school textbook, if you were to make it now read in the document on each page: Latvia will continue to deliver, provide support, will push, actively will work, will encourage discussion, growth, will encourage discussion, growth and momentum. And the role will be fostered and strengthened, targets will be set out and implemented, pre-conditions will be expressed - and, moreover, clear! - and, of course, work will continue to help to find out: when you, Mr Minister, use the floor in the report'Latvia takes the view,' precisely whose opinion it is - the Cabinet, the MPs, the public? I fully agree that there are two fundamental questions - security that depends on internal and external factors, and prosperity that is directly dependent on Latvia's economicgrowth, and hence from the Foreign Policy As you minated in the report, is of great importance to the national, regional and global level. We are a member of the European Union and NATO, and at the same time every one of us is aware that we are one of the most importantin the borders of the Schengen States, which are Russia's bearing geopolitical circumstances, we should carry out a thorough analysis of Russia's domestic and foreign policy analysis? How is the Latvian Government prepared to defend Latvia's national interests by supporting the producers who are currentlywhat is wrong with the sanctions imposed? How much of a threat to the Latvian economy is the fall of the Russian rouble? Or has Russia not developed any major domestic tensions that could also turn the tide of refugees into the direction of our country? Why does the report have no name on these matters? Similar issues arise in the report? On the global level, the report states:' the year is nenest substantial progress in the framework of the Middle East conflict', Mr Ministra, if there is a conflict, there is a conflict of causes, or not, if there is no cause for analysis, there cannot be a serious conflict resolution policy which led to internal political conflictsin Syria and Iraq? The thesis that more attention was paid to the Islamic State group in Iraq and Levantes, and that this is a new threat and challenge for the entire international community, far short of the threat - then how serious? With the refugees fleeing these threats? How many are these refugees, and where are they seeking asylum, and how big a threat is it for us? The refugee problem? This plan does not see the events of the last few weeks severely affected by the public perception of terrorism in the issue of Latvia's citizens in particular, under the Latvian Presidency, Mr Minister, who is man No 1responsible for preventing terrorist threats? (" silver! "), the report states that Latvia will join the US coordinated international coalition against the terrorist group ISIL (ISIL)? - what countries are participating in this coalition? The accession procedure should probably be brought to the hands of Saeima in the' Fight against Terrorism' mandate that Latvia will continue to participate in NATO's efforts to support Afghan security and stability, and you stated that the mission successfully concluded Mr Ministra, please tell mehow many times has narcobusiness and opium cultivation in Afghanistan have increased since the start of the NATO mission? What money is being given to Afghanistan by the same Taliban, where an excuse is given to the presence of the mission in Afghanistan, where 150 billion opium is produced annuallydose (25 times more than people on the ground)? Afghanistan produces twice as much heroin than 10 years ago around the world issue of Rodas: whether to fight terrorism or narcobuster? Is thought to have fueled a terrorism question: what is then positive for the missionbalance? Makes it clear that the long presence of foreign troops instead of prevented, but contributed to the country's fight against terrorism in the area is already a myth, the same as chemical weapons in Iraq on this geopolitically hot region, the question arises: why you, Minister, have this question: why, Minister, you, Minister, are doing this. Not to find a place in the vast foreign policy of Iran? You will not deny Iran the greatest geopolitical player in the region, and with great claims in the nuclear field you were there last year, and I hope well that we understand the problem of Iran's bilateral relations. There is no priority for Latvia as the European Union Presidency could try to facilitate the opening up of the European Union in Tehran, that would be something the world will remember from the memories of our Presidency, which is that it is not going to be Our Presidency looks likeon duty class: composers, prioritizes the solus, the choice of space is the idea of a Riga on the world political map, like Helsinkus, Maastricht, Lisbon? With NATO working together, Latvia was even walking along NATO's table to remind you that the second main external policy of the Government declaration is to create the conditions for the international economic growth and the well-being of the country, thereby also supporting entrepreneurs in a new export marketI would be interested to know in the case of Members in which countries, with the exception of the South Korean embassy, that you intend to open embassies and diplomatic missions to Latvia with more than 40 diplomatic missions, Someone has the economic effect of them? How many professional economic attachés are working in them, andhow big is their contribution to the acquisition of export markets? And to engage in food export certificates, let us do what we do next? The statement and the conviction that the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership Agreement to facilitate Latvia's important economic relations with the US will have a positive impact on the living standards and welfare of Latvia's citizens and to provide new opportunitiesdo business, especially in pharmaceutical, food and timber industries, sound beautifully, but can you make an incredible contribution to the greater openness of information and the transparency of the negotiation process, may I start with the discussions in Latvia? Such a " market without restrictions " entry into the UK will affect our producers? And finally, a very important section in which you, Minister, say that - and I am quoting - will build, will focus on cooperation in the Baltic Sea region. In order to bring this voter closer to a real policy, would it not be important to establish a common sea border for the Baltic States? On the maritime border with its neighbours - Estonia and Lithuania still live on a temporary basis? There is no clear answer as to what the financial impact of this project in Latvia has been mentioned by cultural and economic activity, particularly participation in boards and forums, but has no answer or concern for us and we intend to address the problems of the Baltic Sea Marine Environmental Pollution. At long last, there should be no active dialogue with the nearest neighbours on the uniform protection of the political and economic interests of the Baltic States, even in the European Union? Until now, cooperation has been fragmentary and does not call on the Baltic States as a serious player in the policy of the European Union".

There is no objection, however, in a number of sections of the report, there is a lack of specifics and action plan It is of concern that Latvia, in foreign policy, is avoiding a clear position, refrain from playing a leading role in the matters of major and complex matters of Latvia's most sensitive topics. The Presidency of the Council of the European Union, as the Presidency has begun, is as successful as the Presidency has begun, as the Presidency has begun, the Presidency has to work on its national interests within six months, regardless of those obligations. We are calling on the Foreign Minister to acknowledge that you are primarily Minister of Foreign Affairs, not the European Union's foreign minister, to the new European Union Commission, with regard to the National Association of Foreign Affairs in their rankings as the previous High Representative for Foreign Affairs is notmoving on a particular position in relations with Russia, the European Union's position towards Russia at the moment is not clear when Tiksr Latvia, at the European Union level, is demonstrating in various matters, including whether or not the Latvian President wasshould we not have to go to Russia on 9 May, Latvia is not giving an initiative at the time of the planned fight against Russian propaganda at European Union level, we clearly do not say that sanctions imposed on Russia cannot be lifted in this way, such as whenthe shadow of the sanctions introduced in Latvia's foreign service in Russia continues to work with Russian companies once again, with Russian companies trying to build the illusion of building bridges between Russia and Russia, that this year's Foreign Ministry report is dominated by the issue of security and relations with Russia. One year has passed since the crisis in Ukraine and Russia, and the light of the tunnel has still not been visible to Russia's stalemate, the belated response of the International Society has contributed to the fact that hybrid warfare based on aggression, lies and manipulation is dangerousdeveloped Yes, propping up threats and threats are mentioned in the foreign policy report, but it does not include concrete steps on how the threat will be identified and what action we take in the event of such a threat, it is necessary, at the international level, to propping up the conflict with this Russia-Georgia conflict. And the events in eastern Ukraine we can draw direct parallels to the fact that the international community has not learnt from its mistakes in the case of propping up the hybrids of hybrids, it is high time that, at national, European and also at NATO level, it wasthe Plan for the early identification of hybrids, the threat and risks arising from it must be integrated into national security, defence and foreign planning documents since the worsening of the conflict between Ukraine and Russia in eastern Ukraine by members of the terrorist organisation, precisely the terrorists, not separatists, NATO andthe OSCE highlights, in its reports, terrorist links with Russia at the moment Russia supplies military equipment fully under the guise of humanitarian aid, supporting their activities in eastern Ukraine, a number of peaceful people have lost their lives in the presence of this terrorist bomb in a fair way! The events that took place in France and the events in eastern Ukraine are a sign of equivalence: in both countries, what is happening in both countries is a threat to international security, the National Association finds that there has been a lack of political will to recognise well-organised terrorism in eastern Ukraine, which is urgently needed in the fight against Russia ;as it does in the case of ISIL, the report states that the fight against terrorism in 2015 is one of the challenges facing the European Union in the area of the fight against terrorism by the European Union working groups in the field of counter-terrorism. Acting in eastern Ukraine is recognised as terrorist organisations Just then we will be able both nationally and internationally to take action against those countries and individuals who support terrorist formations in the National Association that emphasises both the Latvian and the international community in dodgedin addition to the events in the Crimea, the International Community strongly condemns the annexation of Crimea, Russia's denial of the annexation of the Crimea - or does it not have to be considered that the occupation of Crimea in the Ukraine crisis is in fact lacking, reactive, responsivethe policy, although there are a number of measures that we can already implement, by strengthening the Eastern Partnership Cooperation Programme, Latvia should, as far as possible, develop humanitarian assistance mechanisms, for example by providing UK medical assistance to victims of Ukrainian troops in Latvia. The reform and strengthening of the rule of law - What is the homework of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in strengthening the security of Latvia and the European Union? This is the right moment for us to do this as a matter of urgency, that in the context of the whole of the European Union's security strategy, our security priorities should be defined by our security priorities, on the basis of which we can direct national positions in the development of the European Union's strategy for the safety of the European Union ,to achieve this, the Latvian legislation provides for the active involvement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in this Activities Ministry, which also looked at Russia's anti-Russian propaganda Yes, we have heard the Foreign Minister's explanation of the Presidency's responsibility and the principle of neutrality for Latviahowever, I would like to draw attention to the fact that we knew for a long time before we became the chair of the Presidency, Then why Latvia, before the presidency, did not become a leader in the European Union's fight against Russia. Propaganda? If we had been forward-looking, the status of the country holding the presidency would allow us to move forward and defend much better the quality of the European Union's agenda, although the war on the daily war is now silent, with direct threatthe Latvian national security information war carried out by Russia applies not only to events in Ukraine, the propaganda mouthpiece has been running for non-EU citizens for years, as mentioned in the report, Latvia as elected to the UN Human Rights Council ,allowing us to play a more active role in the issue of the issue of human rights in the National Alliance believes that Latvia should defend its position on the issue of non-citizens in the UN Human Rights Council, indicating that Russia is now making accusations of the tradition of non-citizens in Latvia. The infringement forms part of Russia's propaganda in addition to the United Nations Human Rights Council's moral duty to stand up for the rights of Tatars living in the Crimea, who are already at present subject to human rights violations and deportations at risk of deportation, let us remember that Russia isnot only Ukraine's neighbour, but also the country with which Latvia and the whole of the European Union have an external border, and the European Union must work on strengthening the external border by attracting European funds to a direct contribution to the security of Latvia and the region as a whole. The strengthening of the National Security Association wants to thank the allies, in particular by highlighting the United States, which were the first to respond to events in eastern Ukraine and, conscious of the seriousness of the threats, ensured a permanent presence of military forces in the UK affecting the issue of the European Union's external border, we cannot ignore the issue of the European Union's external border. The processes that are happening in southern Europe under the current European migration policy, which poses a variety of risks to Europe, can be identified as a failure on this issue and difficult decisions in the National Association underline that Latvia must have a clear position on immigration. There is much in the European Union talking about quotas, how many immigrants each country should receive, if this issue is to be pushed, Latvia has fully complied with the 260 thousand non-citizens here, It would only be fair for us to stand up for the position ,that Member States should retain the exclusive right to decide the number of immigrants to be admitted rather than to be determined by the European Union institutions, although the European Union's external, security and protection are now implemented by consensus, with Latvia in addition to implement enhanced cooperation in the Baltic Sea region. Among the countries, Latvia, as a relatively small country, has its objectives and national interests more successfully to achieve, by building alliances and gaining important collaborations on security and economic matters of the Baltic Sea and Black Sea countries. Within the framework of the Union and NATO, which the report does not mention absolutely nothing in the International Process, the report calls for an assessment of the ability to refocus its economic activity by identifying new export market report in particular for Central Asia, though the National Association considers the region's importance. It is an overreaction to be realistic! Aware of Russia's influence on the countries of Central Asia, which may even initially find it difficult to identify, cannot ignore the apparent more stable and bigger export market in India and China, where the total population is nowa four-fold increase in the number of people in Central Asia in Central Asia, the Report is presented as an action plan with no deadline, no completion date nor the expected result of the established policy of the National Alliance, the National Alliance believes that this approach should lead to Latvia's foreign policy being runreacting, forgetting about Latvia's national interests in the long term, as the report begins and concludes with Ukraine, which is the year's most important actuary, I too will conclude with this report the report of the Association of the National Union that, in light of Russia's action in Ukraine, the report states that, in light of Russia's actions in Ukraine ,this year's will to actively work on a new approach to search relations with Russia's main goal is to bring Russia back to complying with international law and the fulfilment of its international obligations It cannot be Anderson, while Crimea will be Russian and Russia will not be able to refusefrom its imperialist ambitions, Russia's policy of Past Russia demonstrates that, in practice, the report in this area emphasises that Latvia's cooperation with Russia must continue on practical issues, while the European Union's position is the cooperationon technical matters, the National Association is happy to receive clarification on these two important different approaches, Finally urge everyone and everyone to acknowledge that Latvia's foreign policy is beginning here, in Latvia, not beyond its borders somewhere in the East or in the West, (applause from Members of the Coalition)".

And we are now all within the European Union in the midst of a long-standing foreign policy debate this year ,when Europe has just been given a new and extremely painful blow to its security, peace and stability, we also have some correction on our agenda as the Presidency of the Presidency, because we need more rapid, more proactive approaches to the various issues related to security. We remember well that, a year ago in Ukraine, the situation was threatening in this time, but the tension in the specific form of the threat was not yet accepted by Nobody that it wouldn't believe that Russia would pursue its geopolitical ambitions in such a brutal and violent way and in the event of last year'sin the foreign policy debate we talked only with concern about the potential threat to Ukraine, yet again, the challenge of international security will bring a long-standing escalation, then slightly more than a month later - we saw Russia's military aggression and the ensuing Crimeathe most specific vaibs of Russian aggression have been battered by the global international order and, despite the fact that Latvia is in direct threat of military threats, Russia's increasingly assertive demonstration of force, aggressive military training, not only on the Baltic border, a permanent presence on the maritime borders and on air provocations to the airthe room does not allow us to become complacent this year since the events of March in the Crimea, where violations of international law are taking place in the region on a daily basis, Latvia, as a minority, must think even more and more strongly about its weaknesses, including civil protection measures. And by that I do not share the view of a brochure in the neighbouring country that a war must be bought into a vodka or a playoffs With this, I think we need to educate our people with modern and effective means when it comes to how different audiences are concernedin various situations, there is also a greater emphasis on public involvement in strengthening security, greater involvement of new and new military skills, public education and also the development of patriotism, as experts say, how much we understand our country is the only onein the event of an important and security threat, there is a very important element in ensuring that we are able to respond to a situation where, in the case of security threats, it may be an important pillar of internal security at the Last Annual NATO Summit in Wales, andthe Baltic States, in general, brought significant gains to the Alliance of Alianses to strengthen NATO, including the Baltic States' military capabilities, the presence of NATO forces in the Baltia and Latvia, in the light of our country's historical experience and existing tensions, especially those whose memories remain vividly preservedthe horrors of war mean a great deal of honour that we are undoubtedly aware that Latvia, as a full member of the NATO Alliance, has responsibilities, responsibilities and concrete commitments that we have made and will deliver in the parliament at the moment, we have taken concrete steps in adopting the Defence FinancingI know of the law and I know that the opposition will now come and vow that 2 per cent should have been made this year instead of 2020, but I would like to emphasise once again that it does not matter whether the 2 per cent is this year or next year; ifthere will be concrete projects in which we need to invest in our security funds, then there will also be additional resources if there is to be more than 2 per cent in need of a single figure - with interest back or forth We are aware that safety is our prioritywe have adopted a law that demonstrated to our partners that this is what Little Cash is proving to be enough, as the partners of Should need more, will also be coming back this year to the recent tragic events in Paris that they are unfortunately showing that they arethe threat to Europe's security is not only diverse and interconnected, but they are becoming increasingly complex and more ambitious, with a certain sense of relief to receive the assessment of the responsible security services in Latvia, in comparison with other European countries, the threat of terrorismhowever, we have to be aware, however, that Latvia does not have an isolated common European map of extremists who, inspired by propaganda or recruiers, started their way of radicalization in Europe, traveling abroad to spoon so-called hot conflict zones, the personin this process it will become even more radical, and it is also a matter of significant threat to our internal security that we cannot be 100% protected that any extremist group could try to energise, and I see a direct radicalizationthe elimination of intolerance and the prevention of hate speech must be addressed at all levels in the near future, already today, as politicians, as well as our actions, particularly in our national painful dates, to deliberately avoid a certain provocationin the words of the Archbishop John Vanaga, I agree with the words of the Archbishop: " it is not the fact that people are celebrating different commemorative days, but the fact that they are initiated in this way are people unable to celebrate 18 November' Today to safeguard democracy and democratic values, in order to safeguard democracy and democratic values, in order to safeguard democracy and democratic values, in order to safeguard democracy and democratic values, in order to safeguard democracy and democratic values, in order to safeguard democracy and democratic values, in order to safeguard democracy and democratic values, in order to safeguard democracy and democratic values, in order to safeguard democracy and democratic values, in order to safeguard democracy and democratic values, in order to safeguard democracy and democratic values, in order to safeguard democracy and democratic values, in order to safeguard democracyin order to bring stability to Europe, it is more important than all to be united and united that the Foreign Minister's report also states that, at this time, Europe has made a symbolic expression of enormous cohesion, trust, dignity and importance for its values - peace, solidarity, human rights and fundamental freedoms. Not only the leaders of Europe, but millions of people across Europe agreed to a joint and clearly expressed expression,' we do not care' in the public cry of the unapable values of Europe's democratic nations not to fall asleep, however muchsometimes we are trying to give it to the ideologues of the information war that I hope that all of us, I hope all of us, hope that we are aware of the dangers of propaganda, or, more specifically, the danger of its monopoly and of the problem of the Baltic States. In Latvia, safety authorities have indicated various risks posed by Russian-made lies and propaganda and propaganda, and today, to separate lies from objective facts and reality, there is a need for a wider approach to information in Tucks that we will be able to find solutions to national solutionsstrengthening the premises of the media, which will be a solid foundation for our common security in the future, even a number of European countries are also facing the consequences of Russia's extended war on information, following the shooting of passenger planes over eastern Germany, the Netherlands has granted funding to the European Endowment for Democracy to find effectivethe solutions to the fight against Russia's extended information war, and I am convinced that this study will be presented at the summit of our Eastern Partnership and we are aware of the need to combat Russian propaganda activities, and I would hope thatin future, we will be able, within Europe, to have unified and cohesive threats of mitigation and in the learning of the Commons too, the foreign policy is not merely an exclusive labour policy of the Foreign Affairs Commission, As has already been pointed out by my fellow Members, the representation of Latvia's interests should be our entire daily work. We can and we have an obligation to maintain active contacts with our foreign colleagues, to promote exchanges of experience and to contribute to both the issues of security and the promotion of economic growth and, on other points, we have the opportunity to meet heremy colleagues, both during the Presidency and in any way in our day-to-day contact and explaining what is important to our country, which is an important part of our country, which is an important part of the European Union, which is important to every single person I want to thankthe Minister of Foreign Affairs and his team, the diplomatic corps, our ambassadors and our embassies - with their limited resources! - on the work that has been done to have more success and benefit in our foreign policy is the first of the Baltic States that has the firstgiven the opportunity to represent your dairy products in China, It is only a small step that demonstrates the importance of foreign policy for the many people who are getting help from the consular service, the number of people who see our country's embassy and representation as their national representation asin the security island of any region, It is our people's' thank you' to them, their contributions and contributions, and I would like to wish each of us, for the homework that we have done, have noticed But aboutour safety we need to think about every day This can't work like a share, and each of our roles and our responsibilities is to think about it every day, so we are succeeding and succeeding!

The European Commission's first vice-president, Mr Timmermann, remembers, as the European Commission's first vice-president, Mr Timmermann, remembers, in the tragic events of January 1991, the European Commission's first vice-president, Mr Timmermann, was askedjust as we asked ourselves at the time:' who will be with Latvia and what the Latvia will be?' today, when we have been NATO, the European Union, and finally the European Union as the Presidency of the European Union ,our success seems to be vertiginous, but they are, of course, patient, careful and hard at work, they are joking that a truly political moment is for every Member State of the European Union to have its own Presidency, and that it is becoming a mature, true European Unionfor the Member State of the Union, we will have a mature and growing semester here in the Commons, because Latvia, while leading the work of the Council of the European Union, speaks on behalf of Europe, in very many international formats and in the Member States, that the Presidency as a whole is onlythe government's business and its priorities only reflect the government's intended performance in Latvia, that is certainly not the case, as Saeima has always been closely involved in Latvia's activities on a daily basis in Latvia's national positions in the context of the approval of national positions. Before the Latvian Presidency of the European Commission endorses the Presidency's mandate for the most important legislative initiatives of the European Union Only in a small part of the national parliament of the European Union, Parliament approves the Presidency's mandate for the most important legislative initiatives of the European Union. In so doing we are very proud of the fact that the architects of parliamentary involvement chose precisely this model and that the weekly discussions on the European Union's policy with the responsible ministers in our commission are common practice in my hope that we, together with ministers, are working with ministers on this practice. Also successful will continue to thank all Members for their active involvement in the work of the European Affairs Commission, while in the parliamentary dimension of the European Presidency, Saeima holds five high-level conferences in which between 100 and 350 parliamentarians, Commissioners andhigh-level international experts in the very short time - 1 February - in the same chamber, in our own chamber, will gather for the first of these conferences, the chairs of all European Union national parliaments, who sit with your colleagues, as a colleague, at the Little Job. In addition to the issues such as the European Energy Union and the Transatlantic Partnership Agreement with the US COSAC Conference, the issue of ever closer involvement of the national parliaments in the European decision-making process, And I am delighted with the opening day of the Presidency, is a great pleasure. What has already been said by my colleague, Mr Kalnins, that we discovered the Presidency directly with the European Commission Commissioner for a visit to the Commons and discussions with the representatives of Parliament and our social partners, Centyst colleagues, ladies and gentlemen, as has been the case in many previous speeches. It has been said that the Latvian Presidency coincides with a series of very serious challenges to the priorities of our Presidency and which will be reflected in the work of the parliamentary conferences organised by the parliamentary conferences held by the members of the assembly, which is now facing a considerable challenge: an ageing population that existsapart from very high youth unemployment, high unemployment among young people means that young people are inhabitable to use young people's energy and creativity, with young people often feeling a sense of isolation that could ultimately threaten Europe's common values if the younger generation feels ignored, and thank you very much for BerzinaMr President, on the recent discussion on the Youth Guarantee, our House of Deputies, Latvia has therefore started to operate under the Youth Guarantee, and I call on all members of the House, together with our youth associations, to engage in its development and the surveillance of the European Union. For various reasons, there is currently no particularly attractive target for foreign investment: the causes include a low level of economic growth and regulatory, particularly labour-market regulation, rigidity of heavy fighting in this area we have tried to fight here in the Commons as well as working with Labour lawand we know how difficult it is to bring about this necessary change, German Chancellor Merkel often mentions three very important figures in the European Union: 7 per cent of all people in the world are living, the European Union produces 25% of the totalall of the world's gross domestic product, and 50% of all spending on social security is spent directly by European Union countries, so that we can continue with a model so that we can provide this prosperity to our societies, we must achieve greater competitiveness, especially by achieving this ,that young people - they are our future - are properly employed in many countries of the European Union at this time because, in some of them, youth unemployment is as much as 40 per cent and previous speakers have talked out very much aboutRussia's military aggression in Ukraine, and also the expansion of Islamic fundamentalism in Iraq, Syria and Libya in the sense we can say that the newspaper Charlie Hebdo's editorial shot is tied or is comparable to a peculiar 11 September in Europealso, changing the emphasis of our presidency in this case, it only proved that, when it comes to the aggression now being carried out by the Russian Federation in the independent Ukrainian territory, we must not forget what is happening in the south of the European Union the Presidency of the European Union :above all, it is our duty, our duty of solidarity, that Latvia has benefited enormously from membership in the European Union: our gross domestic product has increased by as much as 20 per cent in the European Union, despite the very serious economic crisis that we have experiencedfor half a year in 2009, we will perhaps still be a little bit fragile, but determined to relive the overall European Union project, which has given us as much as you as a Member of the European Union given so many thanks for your attention (applause from Members of the College)".

2015_01_22_281-seq10 translatedText "Madam President-in-Office of the Council, dear honourable Member, dear Madam President and President-in-Office of the Parliament, your Excellencies, colleagues, if we believe that foreign policy is made up of challenges and opportunities, then 2015 offers us both a full and full agreement with the Minister of Foreign Affairs, thatRussia's aggression in Ukraine and the annexation of Crimea are an unprecedented challenge to international security, for order and for the rule of law - there is no doubt as this has caused a significant security threat to Europe and to Latvia's serious threat to world peace and security by international terrorism ,what was recalled again in Paris and Belgium recently, Domari, that all of those sitting in the chamber agree that the safety of the Latvian people in 2015 is our main foreign policy priority for our internal and external security, as well as for our economic and social security. The interconnected tie requires a complex solution, although we must continue to raise our defence budget to 2 per cent of GDP, our key instrument in solving these problems at this year's Fury this year, 24 years after the restoration of independence, is unique to Latvia. Not only to eliminate potential threats, but also to strengthen our sovereignty, stability and economic growth, the key word in the Foreign Ministry's foreign policy report this year is the cooperation of Bez's cooperation with other countries in the absence of cooperation we can develop new markets and promoteour cooperation on economic growth is preventing threats and opening opportunities, including cooperation with the 27 other European and NATO countries, cooperation with the Baltic Sea neighbours, cooperation with the European Union's Eastern Partnership countries and with the countries of Central Asiagoes to the North and our NATO allies in the United States and Canada, which are working on transatlantic trade and investment treaties And at the same time, we are continuing to develop economic cooperation in the Far East - with China, Japan and South Korea in 2015 in particularwell positioned to push this collaboration through the Latvian Presidency of the European Union on 8 January, the European Union's High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Federica Mogherini noted two of the advantages of leading this presidency in the First is that we have a broad world. The fact that all the geographical directions forming the European Neighbourhood II are constructive, measured and unanimous diplomacy to lead the Presidency of the European Union is a huge challenge for Europe, as it does not only offer opportunities for Europe to tackle our common challenges, but alsowe have the opportunity to contribute to our national interests in Latvia's priority agenda in the Presidency of the European Union, with direct coordination with Latvia's national interest in the security, economic and welfare competitiveness of the European Union, the Digital Agenda and the global role of interconnected objectives, andthus - realistically the achievable Can Latvia has foreign policy interests outside the European Union's priorities? Of course, of course, that is because each country has its own special interests and bilateral commitments. However, security concerns and the Presidency of the European Union are forcing us to concentrateour forces on the common interest in the 2014 NATO Strategic Center for Communication Excellence represent one good example of Latvia playing a leading role in the fight against negative propaganda and the propping up of hybric threats. On a modern communication environment and technology affecting policy processes This centre offers new ideas and practical proposals that will have a significant impact on future NATO policies and strategic planning, although this is a centre of excellence in NATO, which is ideal for thisthe possibility of cooperation between NATO and the European Union, as the interests of the two organisations are completely in line with Jo not only Russia's use of information war technology to divide transatlantic unity, including terrorist groups such as Al-Qaeda and ISIS, or ISIS ,in order to destabilise our society, as the Presidency of the Council of the European Union, we need to seize this opportunity to strengthen the link between the European Union and NATO, to attract financial, expertise and other resources to develop this centre and to develop an effective and sustainable strategybut, as this is a debate between the members of the House, I would like to emphasise once again the role of the MPs in shaping foreign policy and European policies on 8 January for the first time in the history of the European Union, the European Commissioners celebrated the opening of a new Presidency with a consultation with parliamentarians over 30 members of the European Parliament. In the negotiations with European commissioners on foreign policy, security, the economy, the economy and social issues, President Lolitai Chigan, who had proposed this idea, had the opportunity to address the European Commissioners, express opinions, ask questions and have an impact on the European Commissionthe operation does not end with these meetings or with today's debate, the Member of Each MP, who is part of NATO, the OSCE and other international parliamentary assemblies, has the opportunity to continue this dialogue and to promote Latvia's interests in the context now that Latvia is being praised forthe successful preparation of the European Union Presidency, whether it be organisational and content, which we are proud to be proud of in the last year of Latvia's foreign policy, has been consistent, judicious and measured against this approach, we will be able to respond to the challenges and opportunities available tosafeguard our national security and promote our national interests, But at last, in terms of our national security, I would like to emphasise the importance of cooperation not only with our allies, but also here in this Chamber, although our political views are many, andin different ways, in this time of crisis, I am pleased and grateful for the constructive cooperation I have experienced in my work with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and with all factions on this; we owe it to the Latvian people - to continue to thank you (applause)".

The report of the Minister for Foreign Affairs, which I have read in brief, but very specifically, is the development of the external policies which make this document very useful in terms of conscientised and clear support in the context of the Latvian Presidency of the European Unionin the Council I would like to thank the Foreign Minister, Mr RINKĒVIČS, and all the staff of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs involved in preparing the report for their excellent work, particularly in view of the tense agenda both the Presidency of the European Union Council in the Council of the European Union and the Presidency have now begun to respectable ,however, it is quite clear that it will be a challenge full of challenges and that there will be a great deal of flexibility and the ability to respond quickly To the early January events in France and Belgium, where the agenda put security at the same time as Latvia and the Baltic Sea. Countries, as well as Poland and other partners, have been able to capture the need to highlight safety as a priority in a very early phase as this has taken place more quickly for other European Union countries, showing the Baltic and Latvia as a sensitive international player in regional geopolitical geopoliticsthey are able to identify other ill-advised future shocks and invite them sensibly to prepare for the Initial Year to be tipped for a year when, after a European perspective, as if unintelligible concern for the broadcasting bravery became the instigators of strengthening security, It has clearly signaled the Latvian Presidency of the EUin the Council, a challenge, a clear position on security-related matters in relation to Russian aggression in Ukraine, even more so in the European Union's highest administration level, including targeting high-profile efforts by European officials to soften sanctions against Russiaclearly, immediate signals suggest a series of collegial reactions by European Union countries to Federica Mogherini's leaked e-mail text, in which she wrote about Russia's re-involvement in the global dialogue and loosening sanctions Lin Linkevičs, the Lithuanian foreign minister, said: " we should not be involved inRussia is Russia, which needs to think about how to engage' Latvia's foreign minister to take action immediately, stating that any lifting of sanctions can only take place when the speed of the Minsk agreement is complied with, and a clear message is now in both public and quiet diplomacy at the moment. The expression of a successful operation, that our Ministry of Foreign Affairs feels secure in this very challenging way of acting, and our mobile foreign minister will find the right, the UK's best interests, to understand that Mr RINKĒVIČS does not always find it easy, he is notit is simply the foreign minister of Latvia, but the Foreign Minister of the European Union, that it is his capacity to be the champion of the common interest of Europe, not to stand up to Russia in a particularly favourable way, the task of the European Union's foreign minister isnot only to listen to the wishes of Brussels, his job is to contribute to the common voice that expresses its concern and to propose a solution, and that Mr RINKĒVIČS has such a potential and, even if you can see that the choice and thosethe operating conditions are not always easy to return to the report, I would like to draw attention to some of the Latvian interests of paramount importance, Mr Speech, first of all on our cooperation with our closest neighbours, the Baltic and Nordic Signifier Both NATO and our Balticthe maritime neighbours have a crucial role to play in the fight against potential threats this cooperation is so far below Now, and the youthful cooperation is not a regional exercise, but the next and nearest security issue wasthe Ministry of Defence's excellent contribution to the Common Security Framework launched at the NATO Strategic Excellence Centre, which gained international status during the year, also mentioned the fact that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has made a practical contribution to the NATO alliance, and the Alliance of Ireland is becoming an essential part of the Alliance. While developing modern capabilities in the transatlantic space, the report notes - and I would like to emphasise this in particular - the need to introduce the third energy package in the European Union in preparation for the gas marketliberalisation in the short term, it is high time to act! So far we have been undecided and allowed our Baltic neighbours to deal with gas supplies without our participation in the lobby of Russian friends, it is common knowledge that we have seen it here in the Commons, as we have seen here in the Commons. All the opportunities offered to us by the European Union regulation on energy security in 2014 were a year of disconnection, when the European Union was interrupted by a minsting issue in energy matters, it has become clear that the Member States of the European Union should not be dependent on a single supplier as it ishappening in some places, such as the Baltic region, it is therefore important to diversify energy supply and to build their supply channels, Russia is a country that, with the economy playing political games, can no longer regard Russia as a reliable partner of the European Union for economic liabilities. And even culture has become a prime concern for Latvia, and even the Russian aggression against Ukraine, which also determines Russia's current role and role in the international environment, is why cooperation with NATO and Latvia's defence capability is therefore essential. The key challenge for us, including the Ministry of Defence and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, is a series of challenges in the international environment that one of them is a question of the definition and place of the hybrid war already mentioned by Russia in the Ukraine war in Ukraine. Minds around the conventional war in the west of Europe contain a network of different conventions, which, in a general sense, makes it possible to soften the humanitarian effects of the humanitarian realm, we know what the conventional war has for itself, with its precise definition of hybrids, starting with its precise definition, and to do so in variousin formats both within the European Union and more broadly, from the year of the UN Human Rights Committee, the last year of the European Union has made a significant contribution to the influence of Russian propaganda on the effects of Russian propaganda, it is already troubling that countries that did not previously thought of it and today we live in livein war, I would like to highlight two practical initiatives of the European Union that have a good potential for cleaning up the quality of the media space, the creation of a modern European channel of Russian-Russian, a valuable opportunity to be discussed in the context of Russia's information campaign ,the amendment of the Audiovisual Media Services Directive would also be an opportunity for us also to create better regulation at national level with the amendment of the directive, which should not be narrowly viewed solely as a matter of Russian propaganda, but as a subject of a strong media environment for Ukraine. The work to be recognised by the Donetsk and Lugansk groups as to what they are essentially - for terrorist organisations, It will be a disgrace to Russia, because nobody likes to call however thousands of deaths on Russian-backed terroriststhe conscience, therefore, is inappropriate. It would help the countries that may prove to be victims of similar aggression in recent days that aggression in Ukraine is escalating in Ukraine, that there is a question mark over the direction of Ukrainian officials on the path to accession to NATO. By helping Ukraine, the European Union must define what it can do together and what country-specific Ukraine is waging for our war, but one day we can get a bill, therefore, Ukraine's problems, including the economic and institutional, are also European and Latvianthe problem, however, is that, in the light of a brighter note in the context of the Common Security, it is essential not to ignore the issue of values, to paraphrase the issue of the Single Market: Europe needs a soul in Europe - Europe still needs a soul Europe is Europe's soul.

Rich Ceru, that led Cabinet ministers and the bureau's cooperation in foreign policy and European affairs, will be just as successful and constructive as at the time of the start of their report on the past year in the world and Latvia's foreign policy, I would very much have liked to say thatthe world and Europe enjoyed peace, security and prosperity, and the reality of diempity is the complete opposite dare to assert that our country, its foreign service, faced unprecedented challenges to all of Europe and Latvia's security crisis to date, the most serious security crisis in Europe afterthe annexation of Ukraine's territorial part of Ukraine, the aggression perpetrated by Russia and the war in eastern Ukraine and the clear willingness to audit the international order and the principles of international law have given rise to a challenge to the whole world, including the European Union's and Latvia's foreign policy in Paralyteseeing a growing Russian move away from the international community, massive opposition to the European Union and NATO's anti-NATO propaganda campaign and the desire to see the world in a shared sense of interest, It is due to parallels with the gloomy of 20 years that our century will be smarterfor a previous failure to repeat the mistakes that caused the two major tragedies in the world It is all the responsibility for Savuthly in the attack on the French version of the Charlie Hebdo magazine in Paris that has further confirmed the need for a strict counter-terrorism policy in This tragic event endangering one of us, Europe ,the fundamental fundamental values of democracy - the tense situation of freedom of expression and expression and freedom of expression in the southern neighbourhood of the European Union in Syria and Iraq demonstrate the need to jointly fight international terrorism by clarifying and complementing both European and Latvian law in order toprevent extremist actions and prevent the participation of our citizens in this type of grouping, Terorisms has become an external and internal challenge for what will be Latvia's foreign policy for 12 members and especially 2015 in our country's foreign policy makers and diplomatsfour challenges will have to be addressed, in the context of the strengthening of national external security in the context of the rapidly changing and dangerous geopolitical situation, the active representation of national interests in the European Union and the effective implementation by the Latvian Presidency of the European Union's Council of the European Union of the strengthening of Latvia's political and economic competitivenessglobally, both regionally and regionally, the conservation and strengthening of the united, lively and principled European Union's Common Foreign and Security Policy, in the face of the threat of instability in Europe, will make Latvia's diplomacy more competitiveevery effort to strengthen the internal and external security of Latvia, both by strengthening the presence of NATO allies in the region, would also contribute to the acquisition of new external export markets, thereby contributing to our country's economic competitiveness at Jau's previous years of Russian military activity at Latvia's borders ,but in 2014 it became particularly disturbing in Last year, a significant increase in Russian military activity in the region, recorded about 200 interception cases in the air and 50 at sea, more than in the past decade, Total's activity poses a threat to UK security, and NATOduring the Welsh summit, Latvia's security and defence decisions have made very important decisions, which further strengthened the security guarantees of our allies and a real presence on the Baltic Sea and Poland on an equal footingin terms of strengthening the Defence Financing Act, it aims to reach 2 per cent of gross domestic product by 2020, the 20 per cent of the amount adopted in Wales for defence investment and a new year has clearly shown that the countrythe capabilities, not only in the case of the military but also of a new type of threat, the propping up of modern European reality in 2014, together with six other NATO members in the capital, have opened NATO's Strategic Excellence Centre, or StratCom Together with otherthe Member States of the European Union will be going to work on the capability of the European Union in order to prevent this kind of threat, and in particular, reducing the influence of third country propaganda instruments in the European Union's media area should include civil-military cooperation, the use of a dual interoperability resource in the meaning of the national legal systems ,information space, as well as practical national borders and the strengthening of the capacity of the safety authorities in the context of the global development, proximity of the European Union and traditional and new hotspots, the European Union's security strategy is an antiquated' Europe never before) '. It has not been such a good, safe and free way to suggest how distant the 2015 reality of the year of 2003 is, therefore, during our Presidency, it is necessary for the European Union to invest much more in the overall defence capability. In development, increasing defence budgets, improving cooperation with NATO, and modernisation of defence industries Latvia will also contribute to the strengthening of the Common Security and Defence Policy, with the participation of the Common Security and Defence Policy missions and operations in Afghanistan, Georgia, Somalia and Mali TiekLatvia's participation in the European Union's civil mission in Ukraine, including the strengthening of the Common Security and Defence Policy Instrument, with the strongest Member States, in particular US Glass Members, will certainly stand for the strengthening of the Common Security and Defence Policy instruments with the UN and NATO, in addition to the tight security background of Latvian foreign policythe challenge for the Presidency of Latvia in 2015 will also be the Presidency of the European Union, in the Council of the European Union, of the question of our self-confidence and the ability to act in a European way that the preparation and the fact that the Presidency itself has all of us - the government of the state - and the entire Latvian society .- makes smarter and more confident the status of a recent European Capital of Culture as a success story, including the public diplomacy and culture programme of the Presidency of Latvia will mark even more of the European map of the Cieku dialogue with non-governmental organisations and social partners at home, aswith Italy and Luxembourg as part of the Trio Presidency, Latvia has nominated three main European priorities for the first half of the first half of 2015, the priority of the First Presidency of the Presidency of Europe in Practically will mean hard work on a new European Union investment, or so-called Junckerthe creation of a plan, the Energy Union, the strengthening of the Banking Union to bring Europe back to the long-term growth path, is the development of the European Digital Agenda as a digital element of European Union policies, increased data security, cyber security and European Unionpromoting the digital single market to boost the Community's digital competitiveness to the United States and Japan, the Latvian Presidency will, in particular, focus on strengthening the European Union's global and regional role in this address, since this priority is directly affecting the European Unionthe foreign policy dimension of Savuthly's first two priorities in detail in the foreign policy report that you have available will make the main accent of the Latvian Presidency a strengthening of the European Union's cooperation with Eastern Partnership member states on 22 May 2015 in Riga, I am sure ,that this will be one of the most important events in the Presidency, with a number of important tasks that would like to highlight four key points, first of all, that the Summit should send a clear signal that the interests of the EU in strengthening and continuing the Eastern Partnership will be evaluated at the Second, Riga Summit. The achievement of the targets set at the Vilnius Summit and an initial evaluation of the implementation of Association Agreements should lead to a programme of assistance to those countries which have concluded association agreements with the European Union, including their practical introduction to a third-round of visas. The liberalisation of the process with those Eastern Partnership countries which meet all the criteria of the Fourth Quarterly, this initiative needs to be further developed by the European Union, in accordance with the interests and readiness of each Eastern Partnership Member State to cooperate with the European Union rather than by applying the same approach to allthe six countries, too, as of last year in 2015 also focus on Latvia's foreign policy focus on the fact that Ukraine, with last year's presidential and parliamentary elections, clearly defined its choice of a European integration course ,it has also created an essential basis for continued reform of the reforms, it is necessary to promote a united and supportive EU policy towards Ukraine in order to support the implementation of democratic reforms, and also the financial contribution to the successful implementation of the reforms in the form of successful reforms. Ukraine's own will, As I have already said, will continue the policy of support for Ukraine, both bilaterally and at the European Union level, in the progress of Ukraine's reform of Ukraine, the further development of the country depends directly on its territorial indivisibility that only the execution of the Minsk agreement, including Ukraine andthe transfer of Russia's borders to Ukraine, the suspension of Russian support for separatists, the withdrawal of military equipment and troops, the release of prisoners, the establishment of a dance line between Ukrainian forces and separatists and the implementation of Ukraine's constitutional reform are the basis for a much more active European Unionthe role of diplomacy, and this is something that we will be pushing for during my presidency and also afterwards, will strongly support the efforts of the governments of Moldova and Georgia to implement democratic reforms, the conditions for business creation, the European level, and the rule of law and European values. And the strengthening of standards in the public administration and society, and in society as before, will strongly assess the territorial integrity of these countries in the constructive position of Belarus in the context of the Ukrainian crisis and considers that a constructive development of EU-Belarus relations is possiblein terms of Belarus itself, further development of cooperation with the European Union, I would like to emphasise that we are open to, and ready to promote, cooperation on a basis of mutual understanding, while maintaining active cooperation with Belarus while developing cooperation on transport ,in the areas of border surveillance, education, science and the environment, the part of our dialogue is, and remains, an important part of our dialogue on human rights and the rule of law - Latvia will stand for a flexible approach to Armenia's desire to be ready to promote European Unioncooperation between the Union and Armenia to the extent that Armenia itself wishes to see Azerbaijan as an important partner of the European Union in the field of energy on the subject of media and political freedom in this country, the issue will be at the European Union's job creation and cooperation with Azerbaijan and Azerbaijanlet us focus on the European Union's southern neighbours, where the main challenges will be security and respect for international standards, the risks and stability of migration in general will work on the practical implementation of the European Union strategy for preventing the threat of the ISIL threat to foreign fighters and migration issues. At European level, Latvia will stand for the strengthening of the European Union's presence in the region of Central Asia, and we have already made a major contribution as a mediator to the dialogue between the European Union and Central Asia in the dialogue between the European Union and Central Asia, and to focus on safety, education, energy and environment, and sustainablein its development policy, Latvia intends to play an active role in the European Union Strategy for Central Asia, focusing on the practical needs and interests of the five Central Asian countries in the promotion of dialogue with Europe, we will also support further enlargement of the European Union in the negotiations with the European Union. The European Union's accession to the Balkan region of the European Union is in the interests of the European Union in terms of the values and norms of the European Union outside the borders of the European Union, thereby contributing to the peace and stability of Latvia in the process of Turkey's integration into the EU along the lines of the European Unionthe policy is marked as a theme year for the theme of development cooperation this year in the definition of new UN development objectives, as well as to the source of funding for Latvia, the European Union and the UN should focus much more on good governance, the rule of law, gender equality andsustainable economic growth issues need to focus on the development of projects in the Eastern Partnership and Central Asian countries, Pozitively, that the national envelope for Latvia's participation in development cooperation projects has been steadily increasing in recent years, while at the same time insufficient to achieve its objectivesin the current geopolitical circumstances, a special place in the Latvian Presidency is the completion of the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Treaty or TTIP negotiations with the US US and the European Free Trade Agreement will strengthen the transatlantic link and create the largest free-trade zone in the world. The Commission and the European External Action Service (EEAS) to conclude negotiations under the European Union Council decision by the end of 2016 should create a quality treaty text which will provide the basis for a new generation of free-trade agreements in the long term that we will do everything we can in the negotiation processand to involve the public more and to promote maximum openness and transparency, let us contribute to maintaining high standards in the area of food safety and public health, as well as the inclusion of the Energy Section in the treaty, no single report from the Minister of Foreign Affairs tells Saeimaiwithout the title of relations with Russia, we have an interest in us having a stable, democratic and prosperous Russia, a predictable and cooperative neighbour, a constructive partner for the European Union and a responsible member of the international community, therefore a year ago, addressingSaeima, expressed his readiness to do everything to ensure that relations with Russia were based on the principles of mutual interest and mutual respect, Unfortunately in 2014, this hope was not prompted by Russia's annexation of Crimea, as well as direct military intervention; andin support of the breakaway groups in eastern Ukraine, this action is not only directed at the sovereign Ukrainian state, but also against the whole of Europe and the international order: many Russian neighbours in Europe have been touched by both military muscle demonstrations and efforts to interfere in other internal affairs, aggressivethe rhetoric and operation under the guise of the notion of the Russian world is noticeably attempts to divide the public from the inside while the Russian propaganda machine has aired in an effort to mislead the international community itself on events in the same Russia, Ukraine and the world the Russian Federation is trying to gain an impact eitheronly when it comes to its' compatriots' abroad, but also the broader impact of a free, independent media environment, the threat to the generally accepted standards in this area Tiek has created common challenges for European Union countries and transatlantic alliesthe most effective way to work with the challenges of propaganda by the Russian Federation is the strengthening of media quality, the strengthening of an independent media environment with our partners in Riga as regional centres for promoting the free and independent media area and an assessment of the current situation of journalists. Affirms that unity, principled and coordinated action by the Member States of the European Union and the transatlantic partners' revisionism by the Member States of the European Union has never benefited anyone in favour of Latvia ever supporting a change of borders in the annexation of Crimea and Russia's action in Ukrainein the East, Latvia is prepared, with its partners in Europe, to look, of course, to examine, of course, if necessary and if the situation is improving, the review of sanctions on economic destabilisation of Russia is not in any interest, but sanctions and international isolation were in the lead of Russian leadership. The choice is not too late for this choice to change, but it will require a practical action of this country that focuses on the principles and standards of universally accepted law and, as I said earlier, that Latvia will do its utmost to ensure that :ensuring a common and principled European Union position in relations with Russia This position strongly advocates the security of the international order and the security of the Member States, including us, and provides support to the Ukrainian people to continue their dialogue between the European Union and Russia on the normalisation of the situation. Latvia and Russia are neighbours who cooperate in many areas, but the Latvian and Russian relations in the year 2015 will largely determine the developments in eastern Ukraine, as well as joint EU-Russia relations in 2015, Latvian foreign policy continues in 2015boosting Latvia's competitiveness both in the Baltic Sea region and within Europe, and in 2014, the Latvia successfully continued the process of joining the OECD, the OECD in 2014 highlighted in particular the progress made by Latvia in anti-corruption, taxationin the areas of administration and public administration development in the Member State of the organisation, Latvia will be able to use the expertise and good practices of the organisation to facilitate their competitiveness after the accession of the OECD to Latvia with the world's most advanced economic powers, together with the world's most developed economic powers. The economic policy initiatives for Latvia will strengthen the sustainability of Latvia's economy, and the promotion of external economic activity in Latvia, the Latvian diplomatic service opened in 2014 with the opening of two new Latvian diplomatic missions - India and the United Arab Emirates. The necessary preparations will be made in 2015 to open Latvia's representation in the OECD in 2016, as well as its embassy in the Republic of Korea, Russia's economic recession, as well as its response to the European Union's credible economic sanctions in a number of Latvian companies, in particular food. The industry, which is leading the acquisition of new export market outlets in 2015, the Foreign Service will actively continue to support UK operators in their deployment in the export markets of Central Asia, South Asia, the Middle East and the Gulf States, and will continue to support the foreign service in 2015. The diaspora's foreign language, promoting foreign scores with debut and cementing English and cultural English outside our national borders, it is fundamental to ensure the participation of the diaspora in Latvian politics, the economy and social processes Beyond the Foreign Ministry's estimates, outside Latviaa population of about 370 000 compatriots who feel they belong to Latvia abroad by 1000 Latvian organisations, about 100 English education institutions and the Society of Foreign Affairs in 2014 actively cooperated with diaspora organisations in the world in the run-up to the International Year of Intercultural Dialogue; andMr Elliott will also be organised by the Second World Free Forum for Education and Culture in Sadarbourne with the Second World Free Latvian Forum, with new ideas for the Latvian future Glassthe Latvian Presidency of the European Union, in the Council of the European Union, coincides with the challenges of a full-scale European history in the history of Karš Europe, immigration, terrorism and the economic crisis in southern Europe, a fall in trust in Europe's idea in a number of Member States of the European Union, as well as slow economic growth. Over the past year, the whole of Europe has been challenging the common unity of the European Common Position in critical matters - in short, the European motto' United in Diversity' - together with Latvian professionals, diplomats and officials -the most important leader in the first half of this year is very well prepared for the Presidency and able to respond adequately to the already existing and emerging challenges that will result in the end of the Presidency's foreign policy this year, with the end of the last month of the Presidency. And the whole of the Foreign Service we will, in 2015, consistently implement the Latvian foreign policy objectives, which I have just spoken about in the past year, that Latvia's strategic choice to become a member of the European Union and NATO was the only right in ourLatvia is a member of the Euro-Atlantic community of values for the future and ensuring the security of the future - that is our foundation for Our Future - a strong and united European Union motto for Europe - United in Diversity is also a story of ourselves ,our own people, our own people, our ability to be united and united on our foreign policy, we will be able to achieve Latvia's foreign policy objectives for 2015, so that we all succeed! Thank you for your attention. (applause from members of the coalition)".

Today, the current amendments to the Constitution of the Republic of the Republic of the Republic of the Republic of the Republic of the Republic of the Republic of the Republic of the Republic of the Republic of the Republic of the Republic of the Republic of the Republic of Croatia have a legal opinion of a memorial service and a wariness of the Constitution and the spirit of the Constitutionbased on a glimpse of the nation's nation as a supreme rule, the source of all public institutions and the source of the rule of authority and the rule of the fundamental law, which require changes to the president's election procedures, have already been referred to lawmakers in the commission of commissions due to the high level ofmany residents of Latvia want to decide for themselves who will lead our country, Savuthly, in the Bill of the Regions of the Regions, despite the fervent loyalty of individual authors to the idea of a elected President of the State, to express the Constitution Article 36 of the Constitution. The version reads: " the President of the State shall be elected, openly by voting, with as many as 51 members of the Proti members, the authors of the bill, in our view, were suddenly urged to leave this privilege in the hands of the parliament We, consistency, are confident of having discussions about the Constitutionthe amendments cannot become a case in which the process is even more meaningful than the outcome of the And, given the heated election debates and generous promises, 12 Saeima should answer another question: does the President of the Latvian State be obscuredfor the people? We are convinced that the citizens of our country should have the right to choose the most appropriate person to pick up the Â authority that will be able to effectively lead the country into dissatisfaction with parties growing up in size, and many people believe that the only hope is significantthe changes in the administration therefore require the President of Latvia to inherit the nation's nation by not even knowing about the 100 elected primaries of the nation, and the nation has the right to decide who will lead our country, which is why it is absolutely wrong now to open upthe discussion on whether the president should be given a vote outright in the Commons This discussion, according to consensus, could be very interesting, but at the moment it is simply irrelevant and therefore these amendments were rejected today Thank you for your attention".

2015_01_15_280-seq129 translatedText "Good afternoon, listening to you, first of all to wish you the peace and satility of your family and health this year! And it is a jab: perhaps less of a policy, more about family matters! But, however, we cannot do without the policy, then I will be short. On the vision of the House of Regions faction for the session of today's sitting, â and not only to begin with the fact that today there were three proposals from the Latvian Association of Regions, all of whom unfortunately rejected We did not propose any more than to discoverthe discussion, sending these suggestions to commissions and the question of how to keep the existing arrangements (i.e. 30 000 signatures) into the final reading and then a decision at the Commons at the final reading, should not be diverted to the final reading. The issue of the Commons vote on the president of the State would be open and to " vote for " at least 51 members of the MP, nor our specific request to include a provision that the President-in-Office needs to have a higher education and a higher category, or firstthe admission of the category to the national secrets It is particularly relevant, because we believe that at the moment we have proposed a discussion, not immediately at the gallops, that this higher education should not be higher education, but that it is comparable to college or college education. We believe, too, that we are often deciding here not for the essential, but we are beginning to hold on to some kind of wording, And Well, it is the political responsibility of each Member to pray that this is not acceptable. Had to be sent just as this tolerance of the highest-class public secrets of Little was made from the tribune that it was told at the moment as a candidate for the president of the president to be only someone who has been working or working in the public administrationand who already exists for this kind of clearance, it is in our view that there is very large restrictions on candidates and a candidate nominated by the nation cannot ever become President That is totally unacceptable in the case of the National Association of this Member State. That he calls for a broader discussion on this type of issues It doesn't go along with the vote because the discussions would have taken place in the commissions where all this could be considered, but we did not even have the same discussion before. It has been said that it is necessary for some parties to find out about the attitude of their constituents to the institution and to the treatment of the election, that the Latvian Association of Regions, already going to the elections, found out about the attitude of the electorate in Latvia to the Latvian electorate. They want the president of the people elected and that they support an open vote in the Commons on Today we also supported the training of border guards at the Moderate University of Movice. This is a very good thing We also supported other pragmatic cases that have been made today. However, although it is fair to say that there are events this time, however, there is still the fault that we had issues that were adopted as a matter of urgency in the event of a contest of competition, but because the civil servants' negligenceas a result, we understand that it must be done, so to speak, that things are moving forward And finally, the micromicro tax that has already been mentioned in the School of Tautfarm, agrarian, environmental and regional policy commission And to say frankly in the Globe and Regional Policy Commission ,the association has always advocated that a 9 per cent level-based level of contributions to Little both seem to be that the other political parties are a node to the consequences of those that could be because the result is apparent from the tax from the micro taxpayments are on the rise, the number of employees on the rise and the number of unemployed in this work, the official work of which has been included in the official work, is an enormous half to tens of thousands today, our offer of a refusal to decide on thesematters for the Budget and Financial (Taxation) Commission - It was justified precisely by the fact that the Ministry of Finance has been lobbying very openly for an increase in the tax of micro-enterprises, a significant increase in the nature of unemployment and the displacement of people abroad. I proposed this, however, at the Tautfarms, the agrarian, environmental and regional policy commission, which takes greater care of the strategy that the country will develop in overall terms, this was a pragmatic day, and I would urge everyone to listen to it in the crucial rather than to thank you for your words.".
