  • Union For Human Rights in the United Latvia holds meetings with Romani NGOs
  • Despite the demands of the Security Police the summer camp organised by the Headquarters goes on

Latvijas Avize reports on the meetings of representatives of the union For Human Rights in the United Latvia (FHRUL) with Romani NGOs. The newspaper states that these meetings are attempts to acquire support of the Romani community for the forthcoming elections.

Despite the demands and conclusions of the police and other institutions, the summer youth camp, organised by the Headquarters for the Defence of Russian Language Schools in Luznava (the parish in Eastern part of Latvia) still goes on. The State Security Police claims that the organisers of the camp are provoking the police. As reported, the police argues that organisers do not have the necessary permits to organise the camp.
