Maris Kucinskis of the Union of Greens and Farmers (ZZS) is poised to head a new governing coalition in Latvia. He was nominated to be the successor of Laimdota Straujuma of the right-wing conservative Unity Party who resigned at the beginning of December. The new coalition government, like the previous one, will consist of the Union of Greens and Farmers, Unity and the extreme-right National Alliance (NA).
The formation of a new government marks a further shift to the right in the Baltic state which is home to approximately two million people. Straujuma stepped down under pressure from coalition partners and the European Union.
