• Latvian Human Rights Committee presents its second research on differences in rights of citizens and non-citizens

Today, the Latvian Human Rights Committee presents its second research on differences in rights of citizens and non-citizens in Latvia. Authors of the research will list the existing differences in rights of citizens and non-citizens, report how status of non-citizens is connected with social economy, inform about recommendations of international organisations on how to solve problem of large scale non-citizenship in Latvia. Presentation of the research is timed to the anniversary of 15 October 1991 or the date when Latvian government took a decision to grant Latvian citizenship only to those residents who were Latvian citizens before 1940 and their descendants, while the rest of residents or those who arrived to Latvia during Soviet era were granted status of non-citizen or alien.
