Bordans admitted that the Russian language could also be excluded from telephone and banking messages.

According to him, the inhabitants of Latvia simultaneously use Russian and Latvian in everyday communication, as well as in the workplace.

“This should not be allowed, except in certain cases, which will be listed in the law.

But society needs to know that the Latvian language should be used for business relations, as well as for communication in the workplace,” stressed Bordans.

In June, the Latvian government approved the transition to teaching in the country's schools only in the Latvian language for three years.

On May 14, Valentin Rozhentsov, editor-in-chief of Sputnik Latvia, said that pressure on Russian-speaking residents has increased significantly in Latvia in recent months, they are required to be publicly loyal.
