Latvia Military Doctrines and Defense Strategies
Doctrine: The Latvian National Armed Forces (NBS) consist of the land forces, air force, navy and National Guard. Until 2023, the National Guard was a volunteer-reserve light infantry force, organized into battalions on a regional basis. Currently, Latvia is drafting 7,500 soldiers annually to accomplish its missions in terms of providing for the inviolability of all national territory, its waters, and air space as well as to participate in international operations.
Strategy: Latvia’s defense and security policy is defined by its ‘national defense concept’ documents, published every four to five years. The latest 2023 update outlines the challenges to the liberal world order presented by authoritarian regimes in Russia and increasingly powerful China. These two countries are threatening a balance of power that Latvia has depended upon to secure its independence and prosperity in the post-Cold War world. In addition, the defense concept highlights the belief that Russia seeks to undermine stability and justify aggression against Latvia. Russia has also increasingly employed ‘hybrid’ tactics, including direct cyberattacks, to alter the geopolitical situation in Europe.
