At the beginning of February, Belte explained to LETA that LTV was interested in broadcasting the BBC's film, however, it was not yet for sale.

 

LETA also reported, on February 3 BBC aired last a short feature film depicting a Russian invasion of Latvia. The film called World War Three: Inside The War Room plays out a scenario in which Russia has occupied 20 Latvian towns and cities near the Russian border in an attempt to support pro-Kremlin separatists ravaging the country.

 

According to the screenplay, when NATO leaders fail to decide on how to respond to the invasion, both the United States and Great Britain decide to send in their soldiers to counter the Russian force. Russia responds to this with a nuclear attack.
