"I believe that it would be very good to catch someone like that and then engage them in conversation. From all the external signs, it does not seem that these individuals who are damaging this border infrastructure are the ones who would come, I don't know, from Egypt. Rather, they are individuals associated with Belarus or the Russian side. There are assessments to be made that these accomplices or these individuals conducting these acts of sabotage are most likely in close cooperation with the special services of neighboring countries," emphasizes Interior Minister Jānis Dombrava (National Alliance), who will propose to clarify the law. #Robežsardze #Ieroči #LikumaGrozījumi (translated)
