The EU's generous gift to Latvia's security - strengthening the "OMEGA" unit

Ministry of the Interior

European Union support is not just a phrase on paper. It's a visible and tangible assistance that has empowered Latvia and made us safer.

The project aimed at improving the quality of training for the "OMEGA" counter-terrorism unit is a vivid example of how European Union funds are turning into a tangible benefit. The goal was clear: to create conditions that allow the "OMEGA" unit's personnel to perfect their skills and prepare for even the most complex crisis situations.

The "OMEGA" center has become a place where the brave specialists of the "OMEGA" unit can train, simulating real combat situations. Such a training environment could not have been imagined without the European Union's generous support. It is an investment not only in technology but also in the abilities and knowledge of our people.

With the new center, the "OMEGA" unit can fully develop its skills, as it has been created to provide conditions as close as possible to special operations. Our country's security depends on the readiness and professionalism of these specialists, and the European Union has made sure they have everything they need to perform their duties at the highest level.

The European Union is not only an economic union but also a security union. It is like a big shoulder we can lean on to build a safer future. European Union investments have become a cornerstone that ensures our country is strong and ready to face any threats, including terrorism.

We are proud of the "OMEGA" unit and are grateful to the European Union for its invaluable contribution to strengthening this unit. This project will serve as an inspiration for the future, reminding us that solidarity and common cooperation are the path to a safer and better future for us all.
