The buyer offers to make a down payment, and then pay a certain amount monthly. What happens if he stops paying? 27.02.2023 I am a citizen of Russia, whereas my mother, a citizen of Latvia, lives in Latvia.

Where and how can you quickly get a divorce? 09.11.2022 I am a citizen of Russia, and I am currently legally residing in Latvia.
