He also mentioned comments from Mamikins and former deputy editor of the Russian-language version of Delfi, Kim Kosmachev, noting that neither had signed Ragozin's statement of support.

He indicated Iļja Kozin as a former employee of Latvian public media. Regarding Mitrofan Slobodjans, Kasems wrote that he had been a member of the Harmony Center party and, according to KNAB data, had donated money to the party.

He also mentioned Delfi and LSM journalist Maria Kugela and Aleksandrs Giļmanis. Regarding Giļmanis, Kasems claimed that he had urged Latvian school students' parents to teach their children to fight against fascists, meaning Latvians. #Ragozins #vatņiki #sputnik #propaganda #delfi #Ragozins #propaganda #delfi (translated)
