Unexpected conclusions and statements live on air.
The topic of the first televised discussion of this year, "What is happening in Latvia?" on Latvian TV, was the sensational events in Venezuela. Judge of the European Court, professor, and doctor of law Inese Ziemele was forced to acknowledge that the takeover of the president of Venezuela and the preceding attack by aircraft on air defense systems and other military facilities is an act of aggression.
In turn, international politics expert Mārtiņš Vargulis admitted that "the old world order has ceased to exist." He, along with the former Latvian ambassador Gints Egermanis, acknowledged that the United States violated fundamental principles of international law. "There was also a brief occupation of Venezuela," stated international law expert Māris Leiniieks.
