Riga responds to Russian rail crossing closure

Riga responds to Russian rail crossing closure Riga Airport says Russia’s suspension of selected railway border crossings with Finland, Estonia and Latvia is not expected to affect Baltic air cargo operations. The airport noted that Latvia’s closed Kārsava–Pytalovo crossing was only a backup route with limited traffic, while the main Zilupe–Sebezh freight crossing remains open. No shift to airfreight or RFS is expected, as Latvia has had no direct air cargo or RFS links with Russia for several years.
