On May 21, 2026, Riga City Council held an extraordinary session where it annulled the deputy mandate of Aleksejs Rosļikovs, the former chairman of the 'For Stability!' party, who fled to Belarus violating his court-imposed protective measure. Rosļikovs had been accused of inciting national and ethnic hatred while a Saeima member. Originally allowed a three-day travel to Geneva, Switzerland, he instead fled to Belarus and did not return, leading to a court order to detain him. Riga Mayor Viesturs Kleinbergs cited Rosļikovs' unexplained absenteeism from council meetings since leaving Latvia as grounds for annulment. The vote was 41 deputies in favor, with opposition from 'Sovereign Power'/'Alliance Jaunlatvieši' deputies. Rosļikovs has filed a lawsuit in the Administrative District Court contesting the annulment, arguing his right to participate remotely in council sessions. Attempts to connect remotely from non-EU/NATO countries have been blocked due to cybersecurity reasons. Rosļikovs is currently wanted and may be replaced by Andrejs Kozlovs from the same party list.
