AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Storm Disruptions: Severe thunderstorms hit eastern and southeastern Latvia, knocking out power for thousands as trees and lightning damaged lines; outages peaked at about 9,300 customers and by evening about 2,400 were still without electricity, with warnings continuing into Sunday night. Riga Tragedy: A fatal train accident in Riga is under investigation after a train hit a person near Pureņu Street, cancelling the 12:15 Riga–Dubulti service and causing possible delays. Culture Funding: Latvia’s National Film Centre approved €250,000 for five minority coproductions, including animated and feature projects with partners from Mexico/Spain, Portugal, Estonia, Lithuania and Finland. Regional Security: Latvia is among 14 countries and the EU reaffirming the 2016 South China Sea arbitration as final and legally binding, while China rejects the ruling and calls it “null and void.” Defence Readiness Debate: NATO’s Baltic air-defense rotation promise is criticized as not being fully met, with coverage reduced to short deployments and equipment shortages cited. International Ties: A Canadian soldier in a Latvian military heritage march said the experience helped him see shared humanity across NATO troops.
