“The Latvian-made armored personnel carriers will be handed over to Ukrainian defenders at the end of this year. We will not only support Ukraine in the fight against the invaders, but also test the use and durability of armored vehicles in real combat conditions, which will allow the National Armed Forces to draw useful conclusions,” said Defense Minister Andris Spruds.
The report says that the supply of armored vehicles to Ukraine will not affect the volume and timing of the previously placed order for the Latvian army.
