Safety theme cannot be ignored / day
For those people of Latvia who are aware that no expert can accurately predict the development of geopolitical processes, the attitude towards shelters is like insurance. Real estate must be insured, but it is not necessary to have problems immediately and insurance will be required. When traveling, insurance must be designed, but there is no need to live in fear of being abroad.
Shelters are similar – if residents of Rigans, as well as other citizens and county centers, want to know where the shelters can be found and the conditions for staying in the near shelter will be quite understandable. This is not a panic cultivation, but a very rational action.
The fact that there is an aggressive superpower behind the eastern border of the European Union, which has already demonstrated its imperial ambitions, size cruelty and cruelty many times is a real fact. This is evidenced by Russia’s full -scale invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022, as well as older events visible in the history of Latvia and other countries. With this in mind, the circulating phrase circulating on social networks that information on shelters should be classified as restricted access information is quite strange. Who is the shelters, if not for the population?
Fortunately, this is understood by the State Fire and Rescue Service (VUGD), which on the website www.112.lv and on the smartphone app 112 Latvia promises to inform about the location of the shelters. The SFRS also explains that emergencies can be different – not only military conflicts, but also natural disasters such as storms. The SFRS has inspected 3,286 basements and underground floors of state and municipal ownership. 395 objects have been recognized as the right to install the shelters, and 1277 objects are partially relevant. At present, 532,863 people would have enough space, which is just over 25% of all the population of our country.
Those people who stand for local elections this year should understand that we live in a time when security is in the attention of voters. Of course, many other topics are also important to the population – from social support in difficult times to street repair. But now the world is quite different than the municipal elections 20 years ago, and there are also other events. If anyone does not understand it, he cannot be entrusted with the right to make decisions that affect many people’s lives.
