Latvian Military Power [Sampolit Film]

The military defense concept of Latvia is based upon the Swedish-Finnish model of a rapid response force composed of a mobilization base and a small group of career professionals. The armed forces consist of mobile riflemen, an air force, and a navy. Latvia cooperates with Estonia and Lithuania in the joint infantry battalion BALTBAT and naval squadron BALTRON which are available for peacekeeping operations.

Latvijas Republika is a North European Baltic country in European Union. It is bordered to the north by Estonia, to the south by Lithuania, and to the east both by Belarus and the Russian Federation.

Further information about the country:
Latvia proclaimed independence shortly after the end of WWI on November 18, 1918 which is the Independence Day in Latvia. The first major power to recognize Latvia's independence was the soviet Russian SFSR which relinquished authority over the Latvian nation and claims to Latvian territory once and for all times. On June 16, 1940, this promise was broken by the Soviets and the country was occupied by the Red Army.
On May 4, 1990, the Supreme Soviet of the Latvian SSR adopted the Declaration of the Restoration of Independence of the Republic of Latvia, subject to a transition period that came to an end with Latvian independence on August 21, 1991, after the failure of the August Putsch. The Saeima, Latvia's parliament, was again elected in 1993, and Russia completed its military withdrawal in 1994.
Latvia is a unitary democratic parliamentary republic and is divided into 26 districts. The capital and largest city is Riga. Latvia has been a member of the United Nations since 17 September 1991, of the European Union since 1 May 2004 and of NATO since 29 March 2004.

@perderlosbilletes The only Latvian Army I like is the Latvian Division which helped Lenin in 1918.

[perderlosbilletes]

You may be right. But guess what, we love it. And a braveharted "joke" can still badly kick some forced dictated army ass. Do you call David's slingshot against Goliath also a pathetic joke ?

Ouar soldiers are the best in baltics. One of the best in the world ;)

1 latvian soldier = 20 russian soldiers. But we have poor technical side. We should get few abrams and raptors, then we could ocopy russia in no time :)

Long live BALTIC!
