Alliance of Young Latvians (Latvian: Apvienība Jaunlatvieši, AJ) is a Latvian political party founded on February 11 2023. The party board includes former members of For Each and Every One (now Platform 21) Rūdolfs Brēmanis, Edgars Dārznieks and Artūrs Klēbahs. The party claims to stand for Latvian protectionism, a popularly elected president and reduction of bureaucracy and states that Latvia "must be independent from the East or the West".[2] The party had one member of the Saeima, former member of For Stability! Glorija Grevcova.
Brēmanis, a former charge- d'affaires at the Latvian embassy in the United Arab Emirates, is the main suspect in case about a possible embezzlement scheme involving the service apartments of the foreign service. Public Broadcasting of Latvia also reported that Brēmanis might have engaged in the residency permit business while still being in the diplomatic service.[3]
