If Ukraine loses, it will pave the way for next war - Minister of Defense of Latvia

This was stated by the Minister of Defense of Latvia, Artis Pabriks.

"In my understanding, this is in many respects an imperial war, which is directed not only against Ukraine, but also against the entire European continent, against the transatlantic alliance. This is a war based on completely different principles and different values," the minister noted.

Pabriks emphasized that the war started by Russia in Ukraine is an imperial expansion that the rest of the civilized, liberal-democratic countries of the world should not allow under any circumstances.

According to him, it is unacceptable for Ukraine to lose in this war, where the aggressor is clearly visible, so Latvia is doing everything to support Ukraine in this defensive war.
