From Latvia, who recently "won" the monument to the liberators of Riga from Nazi invaders, comes information about the restoration of the practice of conscription. It is important to note that in recent years Latvian government on a permanent basis, said that "conscription military service has long outlived itself, and therefore cannot be used as a relic of the past". In 2007, the military service in Latvia was cancelled. But it took 15 years, and Latvia decided to return "to the past", according to its logic.

It became known that it is now in the Latvian army will again be called upon men aged 18 to 27 years. The Latvian officials plan to engage for military service and the General female population. However, as stated, feminine appeal will begin to be implemented with 2028 and "voluntary".

The first call of the male population for military service in Latvia will be held in early 2023. The volume of the call – about 1,000 people. It is known that with each subsequent year "quota" of recruits in the army of Latvia will continue to grow. So, for 2025-2026 years it is planned to call for at least 10 of thousands of Latvians.

In such a situation there is a legal case with the Latvians, which the state defines as "non-citizens". In their case, has not worked out the legal norms of the call. If the military service would not apply to "non-citizens", it can cause a surge of discontent among the citizens. On the other hand, non-citizens can easily challenge the call in the Latvian army, as their legal status does not allow them to be called the individuals with equal rights as citizens of Latvia. And if not equal rights, that the state has no right to require the fulfillment of all the duties prescribed in relation to the citizens.

Ответ на достаточно распространенное мнение, а именно: "Недостатки выдают за достоинства. Российские лампасы выдали малокомпетентные требования по сверхманевренности в ущерб не видимости, которые на Украине никак не пригодились."
