Latvia’s center-right prime minister, Krisjanis Karins, said Monday he will step down later this week after the two other members of his three-party governing coalition refused a reshuffle.
Karins said on X, formerly known as Twitter, that the two other parties - the conservative National Alliance and the centrist electoral alliance United List - were “blocking work for welfare and economic growth.”
Following last October’s general election, the three parties signed a deal in December to form a coalition government. Together they have 54 seats in Latvia’s 100-seat parliament, the Saeima. Latvia and its Baltic neighbors, Estonia and Lithuania, have been hit hard by an energy crisis due to their dependence on Russian gas before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.
