Synthèse
The United States and Latvia signed a Defense Cooperation Agreement in January 2017, the week before the United States signed its agreements with Estonia and Lithuania. It sets the legal terms for the presence and activities of US forces in Latvia, supplementing the NATO status-of-forces arrangements. It is an access framework, not a stationing decision, and it is separate from the Canadian-led NATO brigade in Latvia.
Pourquoi c’est important
The Baltic agreements are the legal basis for a US presence that is national and bilateral rather than part of the NATO formations, and the module keeps the two apart.
