Russians are banned from entering Latvia.

The Latvian government has been supporting Ukraine since the beginning of the war. They stated that they would not allow Russians to cross the border. This happened during a period of panic when mobilization was announced in Russia. As a result of the Prigozhin case, many Russians are once again seeking asylum in other countries, including Latvia.

Latvia quickly reacted to this situation and temporarily suspended visa processing for Russians. The European Union's top diplomat, Josep Borrell, reported on his Twitter page that he discussed this situation with the ministers of the G7 countries. They deliberated for a long time on how to proceed in relations with the Russian Federation.
