Latvian centre-right Prime Minister Evika Silina has announced her resignation, after the Progressives Party, her left-leaning coalition partner, pulled support from the government and left her without a majority. I am resigning, but I am not giving up, Silina, who has been prime minister since 2023, said in a televised statement on Thursday.
Alleged Russian violations of Estonian and German airspace after its drone incursion in Poland have put NATO on edge. In the past week, Russia has ramped up a diplomacy of intimidation in the Baltic Sea using planes, drones and words aimed at Ukraine's European allies. After threats towards Finland earlier in September, Russia violated Estonian airspace on Friday and German airspace on Sunday, days after it had flown two dozen drones into Poland.
