https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-tv-rain TV Rain has found itself in the unlikely position of newsmaker, and in this YouTube clip we take measures to explain our recent headline making news. We have no plans to lecture or preach to the Latvian authorities, moreover to the people of Latvia, a country that has given us the opportunity to work after it was taken away in our own country. We are against this criminal and monstrous war started by Russia in Ukraine, which has ruined the lives of millions. We will remain on YouTube and we won't stop our work. TV Rain will continue working because we cannot let you down, our viewers. Nor can we let ourselves down.
