Saeima majority rejects motion to dismiss Interior Minister Dombrava

Latvia's parliament, the Saeima, held a vote on Thursday on a motion submitted by opposition deputies demanding the resignation of Interior Minister Jānis Dombrava, a member of the National Alliance party. The majority of lawmakers who took part in the vote rejected the motion.

As a result, Dombrava remains in his position as interior minister, and the question of his resignation has been set aside for now. The motion was put forward by opposition representatives, though the source report does not specify the reasons behind the call for his dismissal.

The outcome of the vote indicates that the ruling coalition currently holds sufficient support in the Saeima to block opposition efforts to remove the minister. Further details on how the vote was split among factions, or on any possible next steps regarding the matter, were not included in the available report.
