Latvia will not revoke visas for employees of the Dozhd TV channel

As informs Novaya Gazeta Evropa, citing the Department of Citizenship and Migration Affairs of Latvia, the country’s authorities decided not to cancel the visas of employees of the Dozhd TV channel (recognized as an foreign agent).

It is clarified that channel employees who have received visas for a period of one year with the right to work are allowed to stay in the country and continue to work after Dozhd’s Latvian license is revoked.

Recall that the channel stopped broadcasting in Latvia on December 8 after the broadcasting license was canceled due to “a threat to national security and public order.”
