The chairman of the parliamentary investigative commission on migration, Janis Dombrava (National Alliance), shared his advice on the social network X, which boils down to the need to train our long-distance truck drivers to avoid attracting migrant workers: "To avoid having to bring in immigrants working in transport and logistics companies, the ministries of transport and education need to put the education system in order so that a significantly larger number of professional truck and bus drivers are trained. Europe is short of more than 100,000 drivers." However, many commentators disagreed with the politician's conclusions. Here are just a few of the most striking responses from the public. "Is it so hard to count 2 plus 2? People are brought in not because there are no trained drivers, but because there is no one to teach. There are no police officers, no teachers, no medical workers, no drivers, no machinists, no builders, no fellow readers. There are no people, Dombrava, not schools!" "Hey! Start with yourself? You have never really worked. Take a break from the Saeima and work as a driver." "But honestly, Janis Dombrava, you have never worked like that in your life. We could also work as politicians. You would be better off working as a driver yourself, while I would write comments on social media instead of you." "1. Young people do not want to be long-distance truck drivers. It is not a prestigious job, especially in Latvia. 2. Salaries are low, hours are long, and the work is far from home.
