The new Czech contingent of the enhanced Forward Presence Battle Group Latvia took over at Camp Ādaži parade square on February 4. Captain Hapla handed over the task to his successor captain David Jeníček. Ambassador Hynková was also present at the ceremony.

The Czech contingent is currently made up of members of the 42nd Mechanized Battalion, the 131st Artillery Section and the 4th Rapid Deployment Brigade, and is part of NATO's multinational units. The basic task of our troops is to show determination to defend the sovereignty of NATO member states. The Czech Republic is a reliable ally here in Baltic!
