Russia’s foreign ministry says that it has summoned the Latvian ambassador over what it said was the demolition of Soviet‐era monuments.
Latvian foreign minister Edgars Rinkēvičs called for an “explanation from the Chinese side and complete retraction of this statement” in a post on Twitter Saturday.
Latvian counterintelligence agencies have likely been monitoring the destructive information activities of the Russian freelance journalist Leonid Ragozin for a long time.
