Harmony Centre
Harmony Centre leader and Mayor of Riga Nils Ušakovs publicly declared signing the petition as a "private citizen". After that other deputies, local government representatives and public officials from Harmony Centre began to sign it as well, including MP who was later issued a written warning by The Saeima Mandate, Ethics and Submissions Committee for violating the deputy's solemn vow (oath), in which Kabanov swore to strengthen the Latvian language as the only official language. Harmony MP Andrejs Klementjevs refused to formulate his party association's official position, stating that Harmony Centre had distanced itself from the matter, however they would examine the proposal carefully should it reach the parliament.
