Riga's Emergency Food Plan: Advisor Raises Concerns, Highlights Information Gap
Riga's Emergency Food Preparedness Questioned: Official Documents Highlight Concerns Riga, Latvia – Concerns have been raised regarding Riga's readiness to provide food supplies to its citizens during a crisis. Leontijs Morozs, an advisor to Saeima member Aināra Šlesera, recently released a video highlighting the lack of readily available information about the city's emergency food provisions. Moroz's video shows excerpts from a letter he sent to the Riga mayor, expressing his concerns. The letter cites the absence of clear information about food supplies in the event of a crisis or military threat. He also reveals excerpts from official documents outlining the city's food supply plan, noting inconsistencies and a lack of transparency. "The rules exist, the tables are there," Morozs explains in his video, pointing to the documents, "but there's no answer to the question of whether the city government is creating any kind of security for citizens in case of crisis." Moroz's concerns underscore the importance of clear communication and transparency regarding emergency preparedness. The video serves as a call for Riga to improve its communication strategies and ensure its citizens have access to vital information during times of crisis. The mayor's office has yet to respond to Moroz's letter and concerns.
