Latvia PM: 7 bln euros needed to fortify eastern border with Russia, Belarus

Latvian PM Andris Kulbergs stated the country requires €7 billion to strengthen its eastern border with Russia and Belarus, citing geopolitical pressures. The figure is a government estimate, not yet a committed budget, and reflects the fiscal burden of NATO's eastern flank posture. This signals sustained defense spending pressure on Baltic states amid ongoing regional tensions.
