In addition, it is planned to build such an enterprise near the border of Latvia with the Russian Federation.<\/p>\n

He noted that the government is doing everything necessary to ensure that this facility can be located near the border.<\/p>\n

The Prime Minister added that this region needs economic activity, new jobs, and investments.<\/p>\n
