Kucinskis met with Kuper and other members of the Landtag of North Rhine-Westphalia
in Duesseldorf during his visit to Germany, said the Latvian prime minister's
press secretary, Andrejs Vaivars.
Kucinskis, who in the past served as the mayor of Valmiera town in
north-eastern Latvia, said that cooperation with Gutersloh in North
Rhine-Westphalia had helped Valmiera to develop its economy and to grow into a
town where there were more jobs than population.
Kucinskis and Kuper discussed the matters concerning development of
municipalities, the ongoing reforms and the economic growth.
Germany is one of Latvia's key foreign trade partners - the second largest
after Lithuania in 2016, and North Rhine-Westphalia is among Latvia's leading
partners in terms of investments.
