#Latvia mourns tens of thousands of Jews that have been murdered by Nazis and their collaborators during WWII. This morning, together with leaders of the Jewish community I laid flowers at the ruins of Riga Great Choral Synagogue burnt by Nazis during their occupation #NeverAgain

🚨Russia’s attack on Kyiv, targeting innocent people and civilian infrastructure, is proof that butcher in the Kremlin only wants war. Maximum support to Ukraine’s self defence, long range fires, stronger sanctions against Russia, international unity needed to stop the butcher.
