Introduction
Pandemic crisis has highlighted challenges of a new level both to individual countries and international organizations, and to the principle of multilateralism in general. In 2021 it is expected that already existing global challenges like globalization process, rivalry between the great powers, populism, and doubts on effectiveness of international organizations, will rise. Under such circumstances, cooperation and synergy in all possible formats and at all levels is vital to reach Latvia’s policy goals.
In 2021, Latvian foreign relations will evolve around the four largest power centers – the European Union, the United States of America, China, and Russia, and try to resolve topical issues like Covid-19 crisis and facilitate long-term foreign policy priorities.
