I
am
convinced
that
during
the
Second
World
War
the
situation
in
Latvia
was
more
complicated
than
in
the
Netherlands
.
Without
having
to
take
a
stand
on
the
“
double
occupation
”
viewpoint
of
the
Latvian
Government
,
what
is
clear
is
that
in
1940
Latvia
was
incorporated
into
the
USSR
,
and
that
on
22
June
1941
Nazi
Germany
launched
its
attack
against
the
USSR
and
in
that
context
occupied
Latvian
territory
in
order
to
incorporate
Latvia
into
the
German
Reich
.
The
occupation
of
Latvia
was
effected
on
5
July
1941
.
Later
on
the
Red
Army
tried
to
reconquer
the
territory
lost
by
the
USSR
.
On
the
occupied
territory
of
Latvia
itself
,
acts
of
sabotage
against
the
Germans
were
performed
by
special
Red
Army
commandos
and
Red
Partisans
.
