The new Minister of Defense of Latvia became a weightlifter Bergmanis

July 8 2015 51

Today, Raymond Veyonis, who was elected to the post of deputies of the Sejm in June, officially took office as President of Latvia. Vejonis previously held the post of Minister of Defense of Latvia, and before that he was in the position of Minister of the Environment. In connection with the transition of Vejonis to work as the President of Latvia, the position of the head of the country's defense department remained vacant. However, the vacancy did not last long.

According to the decision taken in Riga, another Raymond of the Republic of Latvia was appointed another Raymond - Bergmanis, who was a member of the Saeima from the Green and Peasants Party. “Green Farmer” Raimond Bergmanis 1966 Born, and he is known for his athletic career. The current Minister of Defense of Latvia in his time at the professional level engaged in weightlifting and participated in the Olympic Games. Bergmanis's highest achievement as a weightlifter - second place in the European Championship. His anthropometric data is reported: Bergmanis height 191 cm, weight - 144 kg. In Riga, they recall how Bergmanis demonstrated his capabilities by raising giant ocean turtles.

The new Minister of Defense of Latvia became a weightlifter Bergmanis

In Latvia, they are joking that Bergmanis can become a “worthy” Riga answer to Kiev and its mayor, Vitali Klitschko. It remains to wait for the first statements of Bergmanis in order to evaluate his knowledge as the head of the defense department of a NATO member state. Although for the Latvian Minister of Defense it is enough to “know” two main points: “the upcoming aggression of Russia” and “NATO will help us”.

      In Latvia, according to this "grandfather Lenin's recipe" for the third decade, local politics have been cooked. The most profitable profession in Latvia is Latvian. The rest (education, professional skills, mental health, etc.) does not matter.

      Come on you find fault with the Minister of Defense (only with a capital letter) of the great Latvia. Well, well, a weightlifter, so what? In Germany, in general, the Minister of Defense is a gynecologist, and it’s nothing.

        So there it is necessary to prepare the troops for the blue revolution. And then what the weightlifter will do, although there are many blue friends from democratic countries on such a pumped body. Well, all right, happiness to them and love - why should the army let them catch fish. it's their business, just do not fight.

All this is not correct! What kind of "weightlifter" is there in plankton education? We need to appoint a fishing champion! They will catch NATO scraps and explain, with their arms outstretched, what a fish has fallen off! "Have a gun, and there are a little bit of fishing rods," (c) Folk wisdom. Although the Great Teutonic slaves do not know it! They are more accustomed to looting in the train. FACT: After the Battle on the Ice, a couple of days later a Chukhonsko-Baltic herd appeared on the Novgorod horizon.
