RIGA, ⁠Oct 3 (Reuters) - Latvian ⁠Prime Minister Andris ‌Kulbergs' centrist United List looked set to win ​Saturday's election ⁠for parliament, ⁠as widely expected, but ⁠must build ‌a coalition with ⁠other parties to stay ​in ‌power, an exit ⁠poll showed.

Security ​concerns and cost of living ⁠issues have dominated ​the election agenda in Latvia, a NATO ⁠and European Union member state which borders Russia and ​is ⁠home to a ​significant Russian-speaking ‌minority.
