Latvia Premier Ready to Sacrifice Coalition to Rescue Air Baltic

Latvian Prime Minister Evika Silina said ensuring a €30 million ($35 million) loan for national airline Air Baltic Corp. was more important than the stability of the ruling coalition, six months ahead of parliamentary elections.

“If the price for providing support to Air Baltic is the collapse of the coalition — I am ready for that,” Silina said in a post on the social media platform X on Wednesday.
