Berzins commented that "those who believe that they will be 'saved' by pension accruals in their old age are mistaken. In this day and age, only humane support can save us."
The president mentioned the statistic that there are just as many children waiting for guardians right now, as there are children in foster families. He devoted a few words in English to the foreign sponsors and financial supporters of foster families, expressing gratitude.
Attending the event was First Lady Dace Seisuma.
