AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Border Security & Defence: Latvia has started installing anti-tank “dragon’s teeth” barriers along the border with Russia, with three-row concrete blocks and plans to expand anti-tank ditches as part of the Baltic Defense Line. Drone Spillover & Diplomacy: Russia’s drone strike on a Romanian apartment block near the Ukraine border injured two people, prompting NATO and EU condemnation and calls for stronger anti-drone defenses; Putin publicly questioned whether the drone was Russian, while NATO said it was of Russian origin. Regional Pressure on Moscow: The Council of the Baltic Sea States urged tougher pressure on Russia, including stricter sanctions enforcement and possible new measures like a maritime services ban on Russian energy exports. Latvia’s Politics: Nauris Puntulis returned as Latvia’s Minister of Culture in the new government led by Andris Kulbergs, after the coalition collapse earlier in May. Aviation & Business: Riga Airport selected international partners for a new 12-year commercial tender, including duty-free and food operators, while airBaltic marked 10 years of its Riga–Reykjavík route. Tech & Education: Tet is running a children’s cybersecurity workshop in Riga, teaching “super passwords” during the Children’s Day festival.
