Sustained international commitment and coordinated action are essential. By joining the international CRSV Prosecution Network, Latvia 🇱🇻 reaffirms its support for justice and accountability.

Lasting peace cannot be achieved without addressing these serious crimes.

Foreign Minister @Braze_Baiba: the Kremlin “needs to blame someone else for the fact that Russia can’t defend itself against long-range Ukrainian precision strikes.”

[Edgars Rinkēvičs @edgarsrinkevics]

Russia is lying about Latvia allowing any country to use Latvian airspace and territory to launch attacks against Russia or any other country.

[Latvian MFA 🇱🇻 | #StandWithUkraine 🇺🇦 @Latvian_MFA]

Russia lies again❗️

✅FACT: Latvia does NOT provide airspace for attacks on Russia. That has been explained several times to Russian representatives.

Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union are equally responsible for the outbreak of the Second World War. On 23 August 1939, they signed a non-aggression treaty, the so-called Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact, supplemented by secret protocols. This created preconditions for the occupation of sovereign European states.

The capitulation of Nazi Germany on 8 May 1945 did not bring freedom to Latvia and the Baltic states. The Soviet Union re‑occupied the Baltic states, and continued forced Sovietisation and Russification of the occupied countries behind the “Iron Curtain”.
