Force in Play

Latvia First holds 17 seats. United List MPs have stopped ruling out its participation, though the National Alliance and Progressives oppose relying on it.

Prime Minister Andris Kulbergs opened a second round of coalition talks on November 9 with the National Alliance, New Unity and the Progressives. The new Saeima held its first session this month, but no governing majority is in place. Kulbergs says he hopes to present a cabinet model by mid-November; President Edgars Rinkēvičs wants a government by November 18.
