- Summary- Russian TV station moved to Latvia after Ukraine invasion- Latvian regulator says it poses security threat- TV Rain calls accusation "absurd"VILNIUS, Dec 6 (Reuters) - Latvia has cancelled the licence of Russian independent television station TV Rain after the company was branded a threat to national security, the state broadcasting regulator said on Tuesday.However, the station has courted controversy recently and was fined 10,000 euros ($10,500) by the regulator on Friday for displaying a map of Russia which included occupied Crimea and for calling Russian troops in Ukraine "our army".Latvia is facing a growing rift between the country's Latvian majority and its Russian-speaking minority over their place in society, amid widespread national anger over the invasion of Ukraine by its former Soviet master.APOLOGYTV Rain's Latvian ban comes nine months after Russia announced that it was blocking the station's output, accusing it of spreading "deliberately false information about the actions of Russian military personnel" in Ukraine.The service said last week it had repeatedly warned policy makers about the challenges "emanating from Russia's so-called independent media relocating their activity to Latvia", saying they posed intelligence risks."
