Just one day after Latvia presented a diplomatic note to Ukraine on the issue (as reported by LSM) the authorities in Kyiv responded positively and Foreign Minister Edgars Rinkevics was able to tweet that he was grateful Ukraine had removed Latvia from the watch list of low-tax countries that offered potential for tax evasion.
Esmu gandarīts, ka Ukrainas valdība svītrojusi Latviju no tā dēvētā “ārzonu saraksta”

As reported earlier by LSM, Latvia was added to the list at the end of 2017, alongside Estonia, which was also reported to have been taken off the watch list in the latest development.
