Latvia demands compensation from Belarus for the damage done to the West Dzvina. The Latvian side is also accusing the Belarusian authorities of concealing the truth about the disaster at the oil pipe in Beshankovichy District (Vitsebsk Region).
Let us remind you that the disaster at the pipe line Unecha-Ventspils happened on March 23. First the fuel leaked into the river Ula, a tributary of the West Dzvina. The oil patch reached a Latvian town Kraslau on the morning of March 26.
