Russian-language newspapers report on inspection initiated by the State Language Centre against the organisers of the concert of pop-groups

Russian-language newspapers report on inspection initiated by the State Language Centre against the organisers of the concert of pop-groups Boney M and Eruption. According to the newspapers, the inspection is dissatisfied with the fact that expressions of the musicians during the concert were translated in Russian instead of Latvian as demanded by the law.

Russian-language newspapers feature articles about demonstration planned by the radical National Democratic Party (NDP) and the union Dzimtene on 8 September. The slogans used by the organisers of the demonstration are traditional, for example, granting of Latvian citizenship to all the residents of Latvia, granting the official status to Russian language and others. The leader of the NDP Jevgenijs Osipovs has stressed that more radical activities, ‘similar to those in France’, could follow if the demands of this demonstration will not be taken into account by the government. The character of these ‘radical activities’ was not specified by Jevgenijs Osipovs.
