I happened to see two news stories in a row on Delfi.
Zatlers will not boycott the Olympic Games
President Valdis Zatlers intends to personally attend the Olympic Games, which will be held in China. The head of state hopes that by that time the conflict in Tibet will be resolved.
According to the latest data from the Tibetan government in exile, two weeks of unrest have claimed the lives of no fewer than 130 people. Riots in the province continue.
Zatlers: Latvia's ill-wishers must also know about the communist genocide
Speaking today at the Museum of the Occupation at the presentation of the book "Children of Siberia", the President of the Republic of Latvia Valdis Zatlers stated that not only children and society, but also Latvia's ill-wishers must know about the communist genocide.
The compiler of the book "Children of Siberia" Dzintra Geka shared that the book was in the making for seven years. In the first year alone, they collected the testimonies of 180 people who directly or indirectly suffered from the communist genocide.
"On March 25, 1949, the largest-scale act of genocide against our people took place", — the head of the country pointed out.

So that's what he's like, our president. Just like all the previous presidents of the new Latvia - a two-faced scumbag. In general, if there's one thing I can't stand, it's double standards. I've been wanting to write about this for a long time. In my opinion, it's one of the biggest sins out there. A person must and is obligated to follow what they preach, in a similar fashion in different situations. Especially when something applies to them personally. At this rate, he'll soon catch up to the Estonian prime minister Ansip in repulsiveness.
