Excellent article. I would say one additional weak point is a State Police. At leadt outside of Riga the level of investigation is sometimes very miserable. Maybe it is lack of skilled persons or lack of interest of performing their work.

Now Hungary can tear down their immoral border walls and welcome all of Africa to Hungary. Next up, Latvia. No borders, no walls, no Latvia at all!

The grey list is the only place for LV as corruption and money laundering is so embedded.. The legal system and procedures only help to facilitate all of it. Sad but the reality

It happened to me on October 10,2019 on the parking lot. The polish guy approached me and offered this product. He showed his ID and said that he works for ZEPER company. I bought this cook set for $250 + knife as a bonus. I don't know what to do with this cook set, I afraid to use it. Any recommendations ?
