Latvia: From Soviet Union to European Union. In 1999, I visited the Baltic State of Latvia in the north-east part of Europe. It was eight years after the collapse of the Soviet Union, which Latvia was forced to join in the 1940â²s. And it was five years before Latvia chose to join the European Union. My visit was a snapshot of a country between Unions â Soviet and European. The story of my personal journey to Latvia appears on my other blog: âLatvia between Unions (Soviet and European)â. Below is my account of Latviaâs 60-year journey from one Union to another.
