  SignOnSanDiego.com > News > World -- Latvian PM says to stay despite crisis
Prime Minister Aigars Kalvitis said he and his coalition partners had decided the government had key tasks to perform, such as making sure the 2008 budget was passed and seeing through the finalisation of a border treaty with Russia.
Kalvitis made the decision despite a protest by thousands of people on Thursday over the sacking of the anti-corruption chief and the loss of two cabinet ministers on Friday, one who resigned and one who was dismissed.
Kalvitis told reporters he had not accepted the resignation as the border treaty with Russia still had to be finalised.

Kalvitis said before the agreement-signing ceremony that he hoped that Saeima could ratify the border agreement by May, and that the Russian State Duma would be as active in ratification of the agreement.
Kalvitis does not expect any problems with ratification of the border agreement in Saeima because political debate in Latvia so far showed overwhelming support for ratification.
According to Kalvitis, the legal continuity of the state of Latvia will be ensured, based on the Constitutional Law on the Statehood of the Republic of Latvia, passed on August 21, 1991, where Russia is referred to as recognizing the independence of Latvia on August 28, 1991.
