Liene Apine elected President of the Latvian Paralympic Committee
On Sunday, Liene Apine, who previously served as the organization's Secretary General, was elected President of the Latvian Paralympic Committee.
In a vote held on Sunday, Liene Apine was confirmed as the new head of the Latvian Paralympic Committee (LPK).

A change of leadership in such organizations typically shapes the direction and priorities for the years ahead.
No further details have yet been made public regarding how the election process unfolded, how many candidates were involved, or Apine's specific plans for her new role.
