How much will the American paratroopers cost Latvia?

77
According to LETA, the Latvian side will spend several hundred euros a month on the maintenance of a company of American paratroopers.

According to the representative of the Ministry of Defense of Latvia Dace Kundrate, the US military will be deployed on the basis of the support of the host country, that is, Latvia will have to cover the living expenses of the soldiers in the Adazi military base. In fact, it will be necessary to pay for the consumption of additional electricity, cleaning of the premises and laundry. The cost of heating will not increase, as the base was heated before their arrival.

All other expenses, including meals for military personnel, will fall on the shoulders of the American side.

According to the concluded agreements, certain material and technical means will be provided within the framework of already existing agreements. For example, fuel. The US side reimburses the relevant costs according to the actual use of resources.

Countries pay for the process of training according to the principle of exercises - the USA pays for the expenses of its military personnel, Latvia for its expenses. At the moment, the parties are completing the coordination of curricula.

Recall that the 150 of American paratroopers will remain in Latvia, at least until the end of this year. As the deputy commander of the US Army in Europe, as part of the NATO military exercises, fighters from one of the best units arrived in Latvia - the 173 airborne assault brigade of the US armed forces.

        Here the whole chip, it seems to me, is this:
        All other expenses, including meals for military personnel, will fall on the shoulders of the American side.

        Labuses will also make a small gesheft on Americans: they do not only have to eat, they also need to have fun, and in general ... To satisfy, so to speak, their needs in all areas.

          So yes, the Americans sit there just to intimidate and have fun as they can. I remembered the cartoon of 2013 - but the situation is similar, the Balts just a little - right away: "Save me, Americaaa !!":

      1. The most expensive soldiers in the USA and Canada, Australia and New Zealand, Western and Northern Europe, as well as in the prosperous countries of the Persian Gulf and Japan. From 100 to 800 dollars a day for 1 soldier.

      2. Mediocre (from 50 to 100 dollars) commandos cost in the remaining EU countries, Russia (and then corruption?), Brazil and South Africa.

      3. Least of all spend state. funds for the army in Belarus, Ukraine, Mexico, the Near and Middle East (I think, not including Israel), Mongolia and Southeast Asia - less than $ 20 per day per military unit.

      Contemporary History of the 173rd Brigade

      March 26, 2003 954 soldiers of the 173rd Airborne Brigade, under the command of Colonel William Mayville, landed from C-130 aircraft in Northern Iraq. After the end of the main hostilities in the summer of 2003, the 173rd Airborne Brigade did not participate in any serious hostilities, although it regularly participated in skirmishes with Iraqi rebels and Taliban fighters.

      Also, the 173rd BDR took part in the operation, which later became known as “Hood Event” - Arrest of Turkish Special Forces Soldierswho attacked local civilians and government officials in northern Iraq. The Turkish military was later released. The brigade participated in Operation Lightning Bayonet in 2003, seized weapons and secret materials that, according to the US Department of Defense and NATO leadership, could be used against coalition forces. On February 21, 2004, the team was returned to Italy. A year later, she was involved in new special military operations of NATO.

      In 2005, the 173rd Airborne Brigade was deployed in Afghanistan under the command of Colonel Kevin Owens, in support of the Enduring Freedom military operation organized by the Bayonet task force. Took control of the provinces of Zabol, Kandahar, Helmand and Nimruz in southern Afghanistan.
