Overview [ edit ]
On June 17, 1940 Soviet troops invaded Latvia and occupied bridges, post/telephone, telegraph, and broadcasting offices. On the same day, Andrei Vishinski , Deputy Chairman of the Council of People's Commissars of the Soviet Union, introduced himself to President Kārlis Ulmanis as Soviet special envoy; two days later, Vishinski visited Ulmanis again, this time, to deliver the list, pre-approved by Moscow , of the new members of the cabinet of the Latvian government. Soon after, State administrators were liquidated and replaced by Soviet cadres,[2] [3] Soviet Union as The Latvian Soviet Socialist Republic .
Soviet Occupation Day became an official remembrance day on May 18, 2000.[4]
Moldova 's interim president Mihai Ghimpu instituted in 2010 the Soviet Occupation Day holiday[5] [6] Soviet occupation on June 28, 1940,[7] Constitutional Court cancelled his decree on July 12, 2010.[8] [9] Georgia followed the example and declared February 25 Soviet Occupation Day to recall the Red Army invasion of Georgia in 1921.[10] [11]
