Denmark rushes to send troops to Latvia
According to a report by the Russian Satellite News Agency quoted by the Danish Broadcasting Corporation (DR) on the 21st, Denmark’s move to send troops to Russia’s neighbor Latvia has sparked criticism. Soldiers sent by the country to Latvia said that the dispatch of troops was too hasty. After arriving at the station, they found that not only the supply of ammunition and other armament materials was insufficient, but even underwear and other daily necessities were lacking.
Denmark sent 350 troops to Latvia in early May to strengthen NATO's eastern flank, claiming it would "deter" Russia. However, many Danish soldiers reported that they found that the supply of military supplies was insufficient after arriving at the station.
There is a lack of training equipment in the area, and the tents are worn and moldy. Soldiers believe that the current training level and combat capability of the Danish garrison have declined significantly, "this is a matter of life". Dennis, a 20-year-old Danish veteran who has served in Afghanistan, said: "We are now short of everything from ammunition to underwear. This is the saddest thing I have experienced in the 20 years I have been in the army."
The Danish Ministry of Defence acknowledged that the lack of ammunition led to the cancellation of part of the training of soldiers in Latvia, blaming complex approval processes and lengthy logistics chains. However, Alexander Tetzlaff, a military researcher at the University of Copenhagen, believes that the deep reason is that Denmark has continued to cut military spending in recent years, resulting in insufficient ammunition reserves.
At present, the number of soldiers at the Danish military base in Latvia has increased to 750, which is Denmark's largest military deployment in Europe in 23 years.
