Latvian court re-examines pro-Kremlin activist's war crime glorification case

Latvia's Supreme Court has annulled a previous ruling and sent back to court the case of a pro-Kremlin activist sentenced for publicly glorifying war crimes.

Background

Since 2022, Latvia has actively prosecuted individuals for actions perceived as supporting Russian aggression, particularly regarding the conflict in Ukraine. This reflects a broader effort by the Latvian government to counter perceived threats to national security and public order, aligning with its firm pro-Ukrainian stance.
