according to Ukrinform.

"We highly appreciate the friendly support that the Latvian parliament provides to our country. We discussed Ukraine's European integration aspirations and how Latvia can help with practical experience on this path," Shmyhal said.

He thanked for participating in Ukraine's recovery and called on Latvian businesses to be more actively involved in this process.

The interlocutors discussed another important issue: the establishment of justice and the confiscation of Russian assets.

Shmygal emphasized that Ukraine appreciates Latvia's participation in the implementation of the President's Peace Formula.

"Latvia has also approved the nationalization of the 'House of Moscow' to transfer the proceeds to Ukraine. This is a historical precedent, which, I am convinced, will give impetus to further confiscation of the aggressor's assets," Shmyhal emphasized.
