  • FHRUL might not support ratification of the border agreement between Latvia and Russia
The political party For Human Rights in United Latvia has stated that it might not support ratification of the border agreement between Latvia and Russia because it can harm interests of Russian-speaking residents of Latvia. One of the arguments of FHRUL is that their support to the agreement might be interpreted as acceptance of human rights violations and discrimination against Russian-speakers, such as mass non-citizenship, recognition of Russian as foreign language and liquidation of Russian language education system.
