During her visit to Latvia, Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya held a meeting with the “For a Democratic Belarus” Parliamentary Group.
The focus of the discussion was Belarusians’ security, mobility, everyday challenges in exile, and Latvia’s continued support for the Belarusian community and Belarusian civil society.
Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya thanked the MPs for their consistent solidarity and for the participation of Latvia’s representative in the work of the Interparliamentary Alliance of Parliamentary Groups “For a Democratic Belarus”.
The sides also discussed:
- solidarity with political prisoners and Libereco’s symbolic godparenthood initiative, ways to strengthen MPs’ involvement in supporting political prisoners, and plans to hold a meeting of the “godparents” in Germany;
- the work of the “For a Democratic Belarus” Alliance and preparations for the next meeting in London on June 4;
- initiatives and challenges facing the Belarusian diaspora in Latvia;
- mobility issues and policies to maintain connections between people while taking security risks into account, so that restrictions do not isolate Belarusians.
