Talk:Latvian national partisans

The article's header

"Latvian national partisans were the Latvian national partisans who..." - Isn't that PRECISELY an example of how not to explain things on Wikipedia (and other encyclopedias as well)? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.225.120.35 (talk) 19:54, 4 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of sections

I think the section "Aftermath of World War I" should be removed from this article as primarily the partisans who fought after WW II are called the Latvian national partisans. As well as paragraphs about Waffen-SS and Latvian Legion should be removed as this is the article about partisans, not Waffen-SS.--Dukurs (talk) 15:44, 21 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I am not so sure about removing "Aftermath of World War I". Especially Latgale and Latgales partizānu pulks is worth mentioning. I do agree that Waffen-SS and Latvian legion does not belong in this article. ^Talk/♥фĩłдωəß♥\^Work 17:35, 21 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Western support

I think this is incorrect: "By the late 1940s and early 1950s the Forest Brothers were provided with supplies, liaison officers and logistical coordination by the British (MI6), American, and Swedish secret intelligence services. This support played a key role in directing the Latvian resistance movement".

In fact there was not any support from the West to the partisans. Most of the agents sent by the Western intelligence services in a period from 1945 to 1954 (about 25 agents) were arrested by KGB and could not get into contact with partisans.--Dukurs (talk) 08:55, 24 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Central Command of partisans

I have studied main publications about Latvian partisans and there is no evidence of existence of Central Command of partisan organizations. Citation of Mart Laar about office on Matīsa Street in Riga could not be correct. In fact there is evidence of meeting of representatives of all major partisan organizations on February 13, 1946 on Matīsa Street. But as result of espionage all the participants of the meeting were arrested by NKGB. Dukurs (talk) 18:01, 13 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
