RIGA - The new head of the Latvian parliament foreign relations committee does not think that a specific deadline should be set for signing the Latvian-Russian border treaty.
"Of course I want a border treaty in line with the Constitution and national interests to be signed, but it does not mean that we should set deadlines for signing the document," Foreign Relations Committee Chairwoman Vaira Paegle, an MP from the conservative People's Party, said in an interview published by Latvijas Avize newspaper on June 29.
She believes that Latvia "can wait for a favorable time for negotiations with Russia."
