One of the leaders of the party The Concord Centre Janis Urbanovics in an interview with Chas stated that the only reason why The Concord Centre might not be invited to the governing coalition is that the majority of partys MPs and its voters are Russians. Janis Urbanovics claimed that so-called pro-Latvian parties attempt to build an ethnocratic state.

Chas features an interview with a Russian woman, citizen of Latvia, who with the family has emigrated from Latvia to London couple years ago. The woman states that the main reason of their departure was xenophobic atmosphere in the country towards non-Latvians and the implementation of education reform in minority schools.
