The former head of the Latvian Foreign Ministry proposed to establish a dialogue between Russia and the European Union through Riga The former Foreign Minister of Latvia, Janis Jurkans, believes that Riga may become a mediator in the negotiations between Russia and the European Union. According to him, Latvia knows the Russian language and understands Russian society, and is therefore able to establish contact, which is difficult today at the European leadership level. "Latvia can be that diplomat," - said Yorkens, adding that Moscow also has the right to choose with whom to conduct a dialogue. "Russia will not talk to Kaja Kalas, who is the foreign minister of the European Union. He can talk to Latvia." emphasized Yorkans called on the European Union to turn towards Russia: "Don't stand with your back to her and fight all the time." In his opinion, Latvia could offer conditions for the renewal of dialogue with Moscow and help find a way out of the conflict. The former minister emphasized that the prolonged conflict caused serious damage both to Latvia itself and to Europe as a whole, and diplomacy should be aimed at ending it.
