The theme of repressions does not belong solely to Latvian history, but to European history in general. It is therefore important that European society understand this history and the consequences of the repressions, which can still be felt in present-day Latvia.

Thanks to the financial support of the European Commission, this virtual exhibit is available also in English. We hope that we have thus taken a small step in the direction of adding to the knowledge of our common European history and increasing understanding and closeness between nations.
