State Border Committee of Belarus: Large family leaves Latvia due to concerns for their children
On Thursday, October 17, a family of 12 people living in the capital of Latvia left the Baltic country and arrived in Belarus.
A married couple raising ten children came to the conclusion that it was necessary to take their sons and daughters out of the European Union.
The reason is this: in the EU, the family faced discrimination.
The State Border Committee of the Republic of Belarus reported this on its Telegram channel.
Details of the situation in which a family found itself in Latvia
As reported by the State Civil Procedure Code of Belarus, the husband and wife decided to take serious measures after encountering discrimination against the Russian-speaking population in Latvia.
In the Baltic republic, a family was deprived of a number of benefits.
In addition, the couple began to receive threats: they said that they would be deprived of their parental rights.
As a result, the family decided to leave Latvia.
Today the couple and their 10 children traveled to Belarus. The process was quick, as thanks to the visa-free regime there was no need to prepare documents.
Our country provides maximum assistance to a family facing serious problems in the Republic of Latvia.
On the night of October 16-17, information appeared according to which a married couple and their children took a bus from the Grigorovshchina checkpoint to the Belarusian capital.
