On Saturday, June 27, the Cabinet of Ministers held an extraordinary outgoing session at the National Armed Forces military base in Lūznava, Rēzekne municipality. The majority of ministers arrived in Latgale a day earlier to hold in-person meetings with local government representatives, entrepreneurs, and farmers.

Local stakeholders are expecting concrete actions from the government to bolster both regional security and the economy. Business owners and farmers are hoping for state support and practical solutions that would drive development in Latgale. During the meetings with ministers, they have expressed a desire for tangible steps, not just promises.

This visit marks one of the rare occasions when the entire government travels to Latgale, demonstrating attention to the region's challenges. However, locals note that past promises have not always translated into real projects, and they now expect decisive action.
