AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Economy Watch: Latvia’s central bank cut its GDP growth forecast for 2026 to 2.0% (from 2.8%), with 2027 lowered to 2.4% and 2028 to 3.0%, citing weaker external demand and higher uncertainty, while pointing to military and dual-use investment as a stabiliser. Defense & Tech: Latvian firm Origin Robotics and Alpine Eagle signed a memo to link detection and interception into an integrated counter-drone system, pairing Origin’s BLAZE interceptor with Alpine Eagle’s Sentinel architecture. Security Policy: Latvia’s Foreign Ministry urged EU countries not to host Russian representatives in arts or sports and to keep pressure via sanctions, arguing Russia should be isolated. Public Health: A measles surge across Europe has prompted travel warnings; Latvia is among the EU countries with notable case counts, and officials urge travellers to be fully vaccinated. Regional Infrastructure: Transport Minister Rihards Kozlovskis said Rail Baltica completion depends on EU funding and stressed the need for Baltic unity, with any 2030 timeline still subject to an international cost and schedule assessment. EU Human Rights: The UN warned that at least 58 states and territories remain contaminated by anti-personnel mines, with civilians making up about 90% of recorded casualties in 2024.
