I will ask for the rest of the pictures to be transferred here. Because we already have a wealth of pictures about Latvia. Or perhaps we just need to clean up the thread.

[Depeche]

Hi everybody. Nice pictures from Latvia. Later I will create theme about Lithuania. I think Latvia and Lithuania, together, are very similar, but also have differences.

In this moving video, NATO Review looks inside the KGB prison where Latvians were locked up, tortured or killed. We hear how today's leading Latvians were affected by Soviet occupation. And we ask if they see echoes in today's Russian aggression.

Built in 1935 and long respected as a symbol of Latvia’s independence, Freedom Monument in Riga has seen the country’s occupation by both the Soviets and the Nazis and Latvia’s subsequent liberation. Standing more than 40 metres tall, with a woman, affectionately known as Milda, on top holding three stars, the monument is to this day, the centrepiece of many Latvian political and cultural events.

Three NATO warships in Standing NATO Maritime Group 1 (SNMG1) arrived in Riga, Latvia recently to promote security in the North and Baltic Seas and show the alliance’s solidarity with the Baltic states.
