Latvia open to hosting NATO nuclear weapons, president says
Original: Latvia could host nuclear weapons if NATO chooses to deploy them, president says
Latvia's president said the country could host nuclear weapons if NATO decides to deploy them on its territory. The statement underscores heightened security concerns among Baltic states bordering Russia, which have repeatedly called for stronger allied deterrence measures. Any deployment would require a NATO decision, and similar arrangements already exist in other alliance members in Europe.
Why now: Ongoing war in Ukraine and fears of Russian aggression are pushing Baltic states to discuss stronger NATO deterrence.
