Generations of Latvians, like my grandparents, endured the horrors of Soviet oppression, exiled from their homeland. The Museum of the Occupation safeguards their stories, a vital reminder of past struggles. Sadly, history echoes today. We must defend this beacon of memory. 💔

Amazing scientific proof on the role of

in the genesis of counter-

policies in the EU and it’s a significant impact on EU strategic communication. Small but mighty!
Beyond the captivating accomplishment revealed here, I highlight that without the lobbying efforts led by Latvia, it's unclear whether the EU would have had such a comprehensive counter-disinformation policy by the time Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022.

Latvia has confiscated Russia's owned property in Riga, but there are still 60+ properties belonging to Russia across LV. There is no time to wait for EU common regulation of confiscating ru assets, Latvia can act now, set an example for others to follow.
As the 11th civilian victim is pulled from the rubble in Chernihiv, a leading russian media reports that Lithuania has resumed purchases of ru grain after a 6-month pause.
Moreover, since the year began, Latvia and Lithuania have spent nearly €12 million on ru grain!
I am humbled by the support of the Ukrainian people encouraging me to run for the European Parliament.
Ukraine sees Latvia as its closest ally and we are grateful for

🚨 BREAKING: Police carried out raids today in connection to “Russian interference” in the European Parliament, according to a statement by the federal prosecutor.
Full story:
I keep repeating that too!. No one knows but us. Stop deciding for us, as you have no idea what it means to be invaded. And don’t tell me you are our supporter, if you support by words. Only actions matter!
Ukrainians died, russians raped our women, stole tens of thousands of our children. Therefore, no one has the right to tell us how this war should end - Zelenskyi 👍

However, it will not affect imports into the EU.

After a recent surge of Russia’s attacks on Ukraine, the country's energy grid once again teetered on the edge.

One of the main achievements of this is mandate indeed. And contrary to the far right who are blaming everything on migration & then doing nothing when it comes to ‘managing it’. We fight for having a balanced deal. Of only we were just as good in communicating about it all!
Since the beginning of this mandate, our Group has been at the forefront of efforts to manage migration and to deliver the Migration and Asylum Pact.
With yesterday's adoption, we have met the expectations of our European citizens.
