Social Democratic Party in Latvia to join Harmony Center

BC, Riga, 19.01.2009.Print version

At the end of January 2009, the Harmony Center party will be joined by the Social Democratic Party, led by Andris Silins and Egils Rutkovskis.

 

As Harmony Center Saeima leader Janis Urbanovics tells the Latvijas Avize newspaper, the party had existed in a "mono-Latvian environment", but now it intends to join Harmony Center.

 

Urbanovics expresses the view that his party's chances of being part of the next Latvian government are growing daily, and his members may get the opportunity to take responsibility for certain sectors, "not just sit back and criticize."

 

He noted that membership in the party is growing considerably.

 

Urbanovics believes that February or mid-March will be critical days for the Godmanis' government and that as a result – Harmony Center could be part of the next set up.
