“On the night of November 1, a monument to the Soviet heroes-submariners of the Baltic in Daugavgriv was dismantled. We strongly condemn this blasphemous act aimed at trampling the memory of Soviet soldiers, ”the statement says.

In addition, the embassy expressed outrage at the fact that despite the current bilateral agreement on the social protection of Russian military pensioners, this step was taken without the consent of the Russian side, which is a violation of international law.

Earlier it was reported that a monument to Soviet heroes-submariners of the Baltic, located near the Headquarters of the Naval Forces, was dismantled in Riga.
