  • Concord Centre calls on all residents of Latvia to celebrate truly two up-coming national holidays – the Day of Lacplesis and the Independence Day of Latvia
The Saeima’s faction the Concord Centre (CC) appealed to all residents of Latvia calling on them to celebrate truly two up-coming national holidays – the Day of Lacplesis (or commemoration day of victory in the Riga battle over the Bermontians in 1918 celebrated on 11 November) and the Day of Independence of Latvia (celebrated on 18 November.) The CC calls not to turn these two the most important days for Latvia into mono-ethnic celebrations and to allow national radicals to raise again ethnic issues that split the society. The CC believes that the two holidays should finally become celebrations for all Latvian residents.
