Prime Minister of Ukraine Denys Shmyhal met with a delegation of Latvian Saeima parliamentarians led by Speaker Daiga Mierina. They discussed Ukraine's European integration aspirations, arms production and the confiscation of Russian assets, UNN reports.

He also recalled that Latvia is one of the leaders in providing military assistance in terms of GDP, and they discussed cooperation in the field of joint arms production.

"Another important issue is the establishment of justice and confiscation of Russian assets. We appreciate Latvia's participation in the implementation of the Peace Formula of the President of Ukraine. Latvia has also approved the nationalization of the House of Moscow to transfer the proceeds to Ukraine. This is a historic precedent that I am convinced will give impetus to further confiscation of the aggressor's assets," the Prime Minister of Ukraine summarized.
