President Obama called Prime Minister Valdis Dombrovskis of Latvia today to congratulate the Prime Minister on his re-election and as part of his ongoing consultations with our NATO allies.  The President thanked the Prime Minister for his leadership on a broad range of issues, particularly his role helping the Latvian economy rebound from the severe shock it faced before he took office.  He also thanked the Prime Minister for Latvia’s contributions to the International Security Assistance Force mission in Afghanistan and its role in the Northern Distribution Network.
