Latvia Holds Parliamentary Elections Amid Concerns Over Russian Hybrid Threats

Analysed 3 Oct 2026·3 sources analysed·Ukraine·Politics
Latvia Holds Parliamentary Elections Amid Concerns Over Russian Hybrid ThreatsPreviousNext

Latvia held parliamentary elections with Prime Minister Andris Kulbergs seeking a full term amid concerns over potential Russian hybrid attacks, including sabotage and cyberattacks. The vote follows political turmoil earlier this year that led to a new four-party coalition led by Kulbergs. Latvia, bordering Russia and Belarus, strongly supports Ukraine in its conflict with Moscow. NATO has reinforced Latvian airspace during the election, with Germany deploying jets. The Latvian State Security Service reported no significant foreign interference detected.
