Baltic Supporters in the US Congress May Decline After the Elections
A shake-up is expected in the Baltic support group in the US Congress after the elections due in a few days. Several members of Congress who actively backed Baltic interests have decided not to continue their work in Washington.
The US Congress elections, due in just a few days, are likely to change the circle of lawmakers who represent the interests of the Baltic states in Washington. Changes are expected in the Congress group that supports the Baltics, as several members who have so far actively backed the interests of Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia have decided not to continue their work in Washington.
This means the Baltic states could have fewer influential supporters in Congress after the vote. The information comes from Latvian public media LSM.
The source does not name the lawmakers, state their parties or explain why they are leaving. It also does not say how many members the group will lose or how this could affect specific decisions or areas of support.
