October is nearly over, and no official party consultations on the next government under Prime Minister Andris Kulbergs have begun. Political circles disagree on whether this is a United List tactic or confusion.

In Latvia, October has almost ended without official consultations among parties on the next government. Prime Minister Andris Kulbergs of the United List party first worked on a plan of changes and then left Latvia for personal reasons.

What is still unknown

So far, neither politicians nor the public have been shown the plan of changes, a possible coalition model or any candidates for ministerial posts.

Conflicting assessments

The Latvian Television programme De facto reports that opinions in political circles differ. Some see the pause as a cunning tactic by the United List, while others regard it as prolonged confusion.
