  • Latvijas Avize reports about a conference of Russian NGOs held in Riga
  • Federation of Free Latvians calls on the President of Latvia and the Prime Minister to protect state language

Latvijas Avize reports about a conference of Russian NGOs held in Riga. The participants of the conference discussed tactics on how to achieve granting of voting rights in municipal and EP elections to Latvian non-citizens. Part of the participants considers that the pressure on the government about this issue should be made trough Russian and various international organisations. While, other part believes that it should be done trough discussions with ethnic Latvian organisations and intellectuals who are open to discuss such issues. Latvijas Avize

The World Federation of Free Latvians (WFFL) appealed to the President of Latvia and the Prime Minister asking not to lower effective state language proficiency requirements for certain posts and professions and state language requirements for permanent residency permit. The WFFL considers that Latvian language’s positions should be strictly protected because the language still is insufficiently strengthened in the country.
