Charge d'Affaires of Russia in Latvia Oleg Zykov said that over a thousand Russians moved from Latvia to Russia due to Riga's migration sanctions. “Whole families, including children and grandchildren, are being resettled to their homeland.
Today we are talking about more than 1000 people. We, in turn, try to assist these people in every possible way and in everything,” the diplomat said. Earlier, President Vladimir Putin instructed the government to consider measures for the repatriation of compatriots in the event of their illegal deportation from unfriendly countries.
