The 'Stability' faction in Latvia's Saeima has seen a significant reduction in its size, dropping to the minimum allowable number of five members after three deputies, Iļja Ivanovs, Igors Judins, and Amils Saļimovs, decided to leave the group. This departure has raised concerns regarding the faction's ability to operate effectively, but its leader, Svetlana Čulkova, has claimed that the group will continue its work in the parliament despite the reduced numbers.

Čulkova indicated that the departing deputies could not withstand the pressure exerted on the party and chose to operate independently instead. The circumstances surrounding their departure suggest a challenging political environment where members face intense scrutiny and pressure from law enforcement and security agencies. The situation underscores the political complexities and the high stakes involved in Latvian politics, where support for political factions can change rapidly.

Additionally, under the current regulations, a faction must consist of at least five deputies elected from the same party list, and switching faction allegiance is not permitted. This situation raises questions about the future stability and influence of the 'Stability' faction in the Saeima, particularly in light of the dynamics of parliamentary support and the pressure faced by its members.
