File photoRIGA, Feb. 3 The Saeima of Latvia, at a meeting on Thursday, approved amendments to legislation that provide for the introduction of fines for the public display of Soviet and Nazi military equipment for more than 30 days if it is outside museums, said RIA Novosti representative of the Presidium of the Parliament. St. George Ribbon Amendments to the legislation were developed by representatives of the National Association. Their goal is to achieve the dismantling of the remaining symbols of the USSR — weapons and military equipment that stand outside museums, for example, as elements of monuments and memorials. The amendments provide for fines for individuals in the amount of 350 euros, and for legal entities — up to 2900 euros. For the amendments to enter into force, the Saeima must pass them in three readings, and the President must approve them. empire
