Finishing my visit to Riga 🇱🇻🇪🇺 with a meeting with PM @AndrisKulbergs.
Here in Latvia the message is clear: the next #EUbudget needs to reflect today’s realities—protecting the EU’s borders, strengthening strategic infrastructure, and investing in resilience and competitiveness.
Pleased to be in Riga 🇱🇻🇪🇺 to discuss our shared European priorities. The next long-term #EUbudget is an opportunity for Europe and Latvia to become stronger in today’s dangerous environment.
Thank you @Braze_Baiba and @Sat_Min Rihards Kozlovskis for hosting me in @Arlietas
