The Russian media write that, as early as August 26, an order came from the UN Human Rights Committee: a request to refrain from dismantling the monuments that are the subject of this trial, and also to ensure the safety of the already dismantled parts of the monument while the appeal is being considered by the Committee. We confirm that the Human Rights Committee registered the report last Friday and took temporary measures in relation to Soviet monuments in Latvia, Vivian Kwok, representative of the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights, is quoted by Russian propaganda media. But in fact, the Human Rights Committee has other powers and tasks.
