"A children's Tetris game console was seized in Latvian Rimi stores, in which the Russian national anthem was played when a game was selected. A resident of Yalgava complained about the toy - Baz Tabo's camera crew later found the same console in a Rimi store in Riga and made sure that passers-by also recognized the tune. Rimi said that the toy was sold for three weeks only. A partner from Estonia, and the store employees do not check the built-in tunes and games before the display.
The Dutch manufacturer Toi-Toys said that the use of this music was not a conscious decision of the company - after the complaint it asked for an explanation from the Chinese manufacturer and promised to take measures to prevent things from happening again. Rimi emphasized that such a toy does not correspond to the network's values, so it has already been removed from sale in all Baltic countries.
