  • MP Karlis Sadurskis: cooperation with the Concord Centre and FHRUL is possible for attainment of apparent and beneficial goals
  • MP Dainis Turlais: Russian Culture Days are a sign of improving relations
MP Karlis Sadurskis (New Age) considers that his party might cooperate with the Concord Centre and FHRUL (parties that draw significant support from the Russian-speaking voters) for attainment of “apparent and beneficial goals”, mentioning as examples non-confidence voting in the Parliament and bringing up issues for referendum. Mr.Sadurskis stated that his party is unlikely to entrust positions of the Minister of Foreign Affairs or the Minister of Education into the hands of the Concord Centre because of very serious ideological differences on issues of education, language, non-citizens’ rights. Shall the Concord Centre be taken into a new governing coalition, it would have to explain to its voters why the Centre is taking part in a coalition dominated by different ideology.
