The website of Ir, a Latvian weekly magazine, carried a new work in its «Cartoon» section on 29 October 2026. The piece, by cartoonist Ernests Kļaviņš, is titled «A Meeting Behind Closed Doors» (in Latvian, «Tikšanās aiz slēgtām durvīm»). The cartoon is a regular part of the magazine's content, and the full work is available on the publication's site.

The source page does not describe what the drawing shows, which events or people it refers to, or whether the author added any comment. For that reason, the only things that can be confirmed are that the cartoon was published, what it is called, who made it and when it appeared.

What else is in the latest issue

Other materials were published on the site the same day. In an interview by Mārtiņš Galenieks, Latvian University professor Andris Ambainis discusses artificial intelligence and says that Europe's lag in developing the technology may be dangerous.

Editor Nellija Ločmele contributes a column titled «Soft Nuts». In the commentary section, Aivars Ozoliņš writes about the Saeima's decision to grant citizenship to a «scientist», which has set off a series of scandals. Pauls Raudseps writes about France, arguing that the danger comes from Le Pen, Mélenchon and the financial markets rather than from immigrants.

The «Personality» section features architects Agnese and Edijs Levin, recipients of the Architecture Award Grand Prix, and political scientist Linda Curika, who appears as Džemma Sudraba in the stand-up show «Sieviete, saņemies!».
