Latvian Prime Minister Evika Silina resigns
Latvia's Prime Minister Evika Silina said she would resign on Thursday, triggering the collapse of her coalition government just months before an election is due in October, Reuters reported. "I am resigning, but I am not giving up," Reuters quoted her as saying in a televised statement.
Latvian President Edgars Rinkevics, who is tasked by the constitution to select a leader of the government, will meet all parliamentary parties on Friday.
Silina, of the center-right New Unity party, was left without a ruling majority in the parliament on Wednesday after the left-wing Progressives party said it was withdrawing its support.
The decision followed the firing at the weekend of Progressives' Defense Minister Andris Spruds over the handling of incidents involving stray Ukrainian drones flying into Latvia from Russia, according to Reuters.
