AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Rīga–Stockholm Ferry Talks: Latvia’s Economics Ministry says talks with Estonia’s Tallink CEO Peep Jalakas show “significant progress” toward bringing back regular passenger and cargo service on the Riga–Stockholm route, paused since 2020. Tourism & Skills: Batumi Shota Rustaveli University (BSU) opened an International Tourism Conference at Hilton focused on sustainable tourism, digital transformation, ecotourism and destination management, with 217 academics and young researchers expected to take part. Summer Travel Comfort: A Polarsteps “coolcation” index ranks Iceland, Finland and Norway top for escaping heat, using factors like night temperatures, sea-swimming conditions, forest cover, density and access to wild camping. Border Reality Check: Estonia’s southeast border crossings are seeing heavier summer traffic, with Koidula handling 800–900 people daily and bus queues forming during thorough checks—travellers are urged to allow extra time. Latvia Travel Safety/Logistics: Latvia detained a German man suspected of people-smuggling after a vehicle check near the Belarus border; authorities say six people lacked valid travel documents and criminal proceedings are underway. Local Research in Motion: Riga Stradiņš University continues anthropological “measuring” expeditions this summer, with stops in Zemgale (Bauska district) and later Vidzeme (Valmiera) using modern 3D scanning.
