There is a special place in the graves of Riga Forest - a memorial site "White Crossroads" for the victims of the 1940./1941. Communist terror. In this place is buried soil from former Soviet Gulag camps that were brought there on  November 11, 1995, and now it is blessed. Land from, where the men of families were deported from Latvia, was imprisoned and condemned to death on 14 June 1941. As I laid down the flowers, I mentioned the police and border guards who gave their lives for their homeland.
