MPs Jakovs Pliners and Valerijs Buhvalovs (both from the FHRUL) have launched a book “Reform of Ethnic Minority Schools in Latvia: Analysis, Assessment and Perspectives” According to the book’s authors, the reform failed and caused considerable damage to ethnic minority schools. The authors believe that the reason for the failure is that its aim was to change the language of instructions by any means and all decisions were made by the Saeima without asking the opinion and recommendations of ethnic minorities.

Telegraf prints an article about a list of persons who have been banned from entry into Latvia.  According to a representative of the Citizenship and Migration Affairs Office, there is national black-list in Latvia and there is Schengen black-list which includes a number of persons from the Latvian list. However, not all foreigners could be included into the Schengen black-list because of different inclusion criteria.
