The first session of the conference was dedicated to an analysis of the 15 years of democratic transformation in Latvia and Russia, as well as the relations between the two countries in that period in the context of the democratic reforms. Juris Rozenvalds, professor of political science at the University of Latvia, announced the conclusions of a study on democracy in Latvia. This study sought to evaluate the democratic credentials of the country's institutions; identify what must be done to improve the quality of democracy in different aspects of public life; and inform policy proposals aimed at improving Latvia's democratic institutions. The study highlighted positive and negative aspects of democracy in Latvia.
