Latvia marks 30th anniversary of declaration of independence

A signboard reminding people to observe social distancing is seen in front of the Freedom Monument in Riga, Latvia, May 4, 2020, as the country marks the 30th anniversary of its declaration of independence. May 4 is celebrated by Latvians to mark the day the country declared independence from the former Soviet Union in 1990. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, national-wide celebrations this year mostly took place at home as all annual events were cancelled. (Photo by Janis Laizans/Xinhua)
