  • Prime Minister Laimdota Straujuma: sooner or later education in all state funded schools in Latvia will be in Latvian language only

Vesti Segodnya reports that the Prime Minister Laimdota Straujuma stated that sooner or later education in all state funded schools in Latvia will be in Latvian language only. According to Mrs Straujuma, it is important to explore economic and social preconditions for such idea, to evaluate and to clarify it, but sooner or later it will happen. The newspaper notes that the true plans of the governing coalition regarding the bilingual education are unclear yet as recently the Minster of Education Ina Druviete denied the fact that education in Latvia will be in Latvian language only.
