AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Language Law Push: Latvia is set to ban the use of foreign languages in stores, car dealerships and similar places, with a bill debate turning on whether sellers must start in an EU official language before switching at a buyer’s request, while written info like menus would stay official-language only. Parliament Costs: Latvian Saeima deputies’ expense compensation has topped €1 million over the past term, with most money tied to housing rentals and hundreds of thousands to transport. Soviet Deportations Remembered: Latvia marked the 85th anniversary of the 1941 mass deportations, when tens of thousands were sent to Siberia, with President Edgars Rinkēvič stressing the lasting damage across generations. EU Migration Pact: The EU Migration and Asylum Pact took effect, shifting focus toward border control, return procedures and possible “return hubs,” while Latvia has also adopted a new law to strengthen border control. Riga/Latvia in Justice Talks: A UK-Latvia deal aims to speed up prisoner transfers, tied to a long-running extradition fight in the Keaton Slater hit-and-run case. Baltic Sports Spotlight: Latvia’s World Cup of Darts run continues in Frankfurt, including a notable group-stage upset involving Latvia’s pairing.
