Henri Vanhanen wrote that an armed and masked group had infiltrated Latvia, a NATO member, from Belarus. According to him, the armed men had first attempted to force about 20 migrants across the border and threatened Latvian soldiers. Later, masked individuals had damaged border infrastructure and taken surveillance cameras before returning to Belarus. Vanhanen stated that Latvian authorities had confirmed the events, but the identity of the infiltrators and any possible connection to the Belarusian or Russian state were still under investigation. Vanhanen regarded the events as a reminder that the next crisis at Finland's eastern border could differ from the events of 2023. He called for preparation against armed provocations, sabotage, and deliberate border crossings, and highlighted the resources available at the border, the operations of the Border Guard, and the speed of decision-making in the Defense Forces. He wrote that the integrity of the national border could not be negotiable and that there must be an immediate response to deliberate border crossings. https://t.co/8BnhxJJ5jb #Latvia #Nato #kriisi (translated)
