The Head of the Bureau for the Monitoring of the Russian Troop Withdrawal Mr.Ilgonis Upmalis stressed that there was a lack of precise information on the number of servicemen residing in Latvia. He also pointed out the way the parties at the negotiations had interpreted the article of the agreement on the reimbursement of the value of the property of the Russian Army. Latvia considers only the immovable property constructed after February 28, 1992, to be the property of the Russian Army and is ready to reimburse its value while General Mayorov insists that it should be any immovable property left by the Russian Army on the Latvian soil.
