For Development/For, the National Alliance and New Unity have decided not to participate in further government formation talks lead by the New Conservative Party (JKP) leader Janis Bordans, informed LETA.

For Development/For has called on Latvian President Raimonds Vejonis to nominate a new candidate for the prime minister.


According to a letter sent by For Development/For leader Daniels Pavluts to the party’s members, the party has informed JKP leader Bordans that For Development/For has decided to suspend its participation in Bordans’ government.

Also New Unity and National Alliance’s representatives confirmed that they will not participate in further government formation talks.
