  • Latvian Human Rights Committee celebrates its 20th anniversary
  • “Latgolys Saeima” criticizes proposal to establish autonomy of Latgale

Vesti Segodnya reports about 20th anniversary of the Latvian Human Rights Committee. One of the main activity of the NGO is provision of legal aid in social issues and issues concerning non-citizens and Russian speaking residents. The NGO also prepares reports on human rights and ethnic minority situation in Latvia.

A Latgalian NGO “Latgolys Saeima” made a statement publicly criticizing a proposal of an organisation “For Native Language” and its leader Vladimirs Lindermans to make Latgale region (Eastern part of Latvia) autonomic. According to the head of the “Latgolys Saeima”, such idea is harmful not only to Latvian state but also to Latgalians. The NGO also called to the government of Latvia to grant real support to the Latgale region strengthening its economy and Latgalian identity. Latvijas Avize
