The trip will take place June 27-28 and will include bilateral talks, the presentation of a book to the Latvian National Library and a visit to Daugavpils to unveil a monument to former Polish ruler Stefan Batory and pay tribute to Polish soldiers who fell during Latvia's independence struggles at the village of Slobodka.
