As Latviaheads to parliamentary elections, security and the threat from neighboring Russia dominate the campaign. With Russia’s war in Ukraine reshaping public debate, many voters see national defense as a top priority. The party of Prime Minister Andris Kulbergs leads in the polls, emphasizing military preparedness and border security. While most parties support reducing ties with Russia, some argue for maintaining limited trade links. From concrete anti-tank barriers known as “dragon’s teeth” to increased border defenses, Latvia is preparing for potential threats as voters decide the country’s future direction.
