Newly-installed Latvian President Egils Levits is in Estonia on Wednesday, meeting President Kersti Kaljulaid, Prime Minister Jüri Ratas (Centre) and Riigikogu speaker Henn Põlluaas (EKRE).
Levits' inauguration ceremony took place in the Latvian capital, Riga, on Monday and he made his country's northern neighbor the destination of his first official visit. Levits will also visit the memorial to the victims of communism, in the Maarjamäe district of Tallinn, according to ERR's online news in Estonian.
Levits was elected president by the Saeima, the Latvian parliament, in May, and replaces Raimonds Vējonis.
